Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
विश्वासिया नाहीं लागत सायास । रंग अनायासें अंगा येतो ॥1॥
लेंकराच्या हातें घास मागे माता । वोरसोनि चित्ता सुख पावे ॥ध्रु.॥
गौरव त्या मानी आरुषा वचनीं । भूषण ते वाणी मिरवावी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे आहेस सकळ ही साक्षी । माझा कइप पक्षी पांडुरंग ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The faithful one needs no exertion; divine color comes to his body effortlessly. A mother begs a morsel from the hand of her child, and by accepting it she is filled with joy. She takes the child's harsh words as a mark of honor and wears that speech as an ornament. Says Tuka, You are the witness of all. Panduranga is always on my side.
