Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
शोकें शोक वाढे । हिमतीचे धीर गाढे ॥१॥
येथें केले नव्हे काई । लंडीपण खोटें भाई ॥ध्रु.॥
करिती होया होय । परी नव्हे कोणी साह्य ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे घडी । साधिलिया एक थोडी ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Grief only multiplies grief, but the courageous remain steadfast in their resolve. Nothing can be accomplished here through cowardice, O brother. Those who act with determination bring things into being, though no one else may come to help. Says Tuka, even one small moment, when seized with effort, is enough.
