Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
भक्तीप्रेमसुख नेणवे आणिकां । पंडित वाचकां Yाानियांसी ॥1॥
आत्मनिष्ठ जरी जाले जीवन्मुक्त । तरी भक्ती सुख दुर्लभ त्यां ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे कृपा करिल नारायण । तरि च हें वर्म पडे ठायीं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The joy of devotion and love is unknown to others: to scholars, reciters, and even to the wise. Though they may have attained the state of living liberation through self-knowledge, the bliss of devotion remains rare even for them. Says Tuka, only when Narayana bestows His grace does this secret truly find its home.
