Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
बोलोनियां काय दावूं । तुह्मी जीऊ जगाचे ॥1॥
हे चि आतां माझी सेवा । चिंतन देवा करितों ॥ध्रु.॥
विरHासी देह तुच्छ । नाहीं आस देहाची ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे पायापाशीं । येइन ऐसी वासना ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
What can I show You by merely speaking? You are the very life of the world. This alone is my service now: I contemplate You, O God. For the detached one, the body is trivial; there is no clinging to it. Says Tuka, may my desire be only this: to arrive at Your feet.
