Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
आहेतें सकळ प्रारब्धा हातीं । यावें काकुलती यासी आतां ॥1॥
ऐसा माझ्या मनें सांगितला भाव । तोंवरीच देव दुजा नाहीं ॥ध्रु.॥
अवघियांची जेव्हां सारावी करकर । भावबळें थार धरूं येसी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे तुज ठेवावें पुजून । आणीक ते गुण नाहीं येथें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Everything rests in the hands of destiny; one must come humbly before that alone. My mind has understood this much: until then, there is no other God. When all the commotion has been sorted out, You can be reached by the strength of devotion alone. Says Tuka, one must worship You and set You above; no other virtue avails here.
