Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
शोधिसील मूळें । त्याचें करीसी वाटोळें ॥१॥
ऐसे संतांचे बोभाट । तुझे बहु जाले तट ॥ध्रु.॥
लौकिका बाहेरी । घाली रोंखीं जया धरी ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे गुण । तुझा लागलिया शून्य ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
When you search anything to its root, you destroy it utterly. Such is the outcry of the saints: your shores of argument are too many. You cast beyond all worldly convention whoever you seize. Says Tuka, once your quality takes hold, everything else becomes nothing.
