Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
बोलिलिया गुणीं नाहीं पाविजेत । देवा नाहीं होत हित तेथें ॥1॥
कवतुक तुझें नवल यावरि । घेसील तें शिरीं काय नव्हे ॥ध्रु.॥
नाहीं मिळों येत संचिताच्या मता । पुराणीं पाहतां अघटित ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे पायीं निरोपिला भाव । न्याल तैसा जाव सिद्धी देवा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
By the virtues spoken of, nothing is truly attained; mere words do not bring welfare, O Lord. Yet what a marvel it is: will You not take upon Your head whatever is offered? Destiny's ways do not conform to any plan; the scriptures describe events that defy all expectation. Says Tuka, I have placed my devotion at Your feet; carry it to fruition as You see fit, O Lord.
