Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
धिंदधिंद तुझ्या करीन धिंदडएा । ऐसें काय वेडएा जाणितलें ॥1॥
केली तरी बरें मज भेटी भावास । नाहीं तरि नास आरंभिला ॥ध्रु.॥
मरावें मारावें या आलें प्रसंगा । बरें पांडुरंगा कळलेंसावें ॥2॥
तुकयाबंधु ह्मणे तुझी माझी उरी । उडाली न धरीं भीड कांहीं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I will raise a commotion upon Your doorstep. Is that what You take me for, You fool? Return my brother to me and all will be well; otherwise I will begin destruction. The situation has come to a point where one must be ready to die or to kill. Let this be clearly understood, O Panduranga. Says Tukya-bandhu, the showdown between You and me has begun; I will spare no courtesy.

Longing and Separation
Cries from the dark night of the soul: remonstrances, complaints, and desperate yearning.
