Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
माझ्या भावें केली जोडी । न सरेसी कल्पकोडी । आणियेलें धाडी । घालुनि अवघें वैकुंठ ॥1॥
आतां न लगे यावें जावें । कोठें कांहीं च करावें । जन्मोजन्मीं खावें । सुखें बैसोनसें जालें ॥ध्रु.॥
असंख्य संख्या नाहीं पार । आनंदें दाटलें अंबर । न माये अपार । त्रिभुवनीं सांटवितां ॥2॥
अवघें भरलें सदोदित । जाले सुखाचे पर्वत । तुकयाबंधु ह्मणे परमार्थ । धन अद्भुत सांपडलें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Through my brother's devotion, a fortune was amassed that will not be exhausted in a billion ages. He has brought the whole of Vaikuntha down in one consignment. Now there is no need to come and go or to do anything anywhere; we may eat in comfort for lifetime upon lifetime. The wealth is beyond counting, immeasurable, boundless; the sky is packed with bliss that cannot be contained in all three worlds. Everything is filled to overflowing; mountains of happiness have arisen. Says Tukya-bandhu, a wondrous, supreme treasure has been found.
