Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
एका एक वर्में लावूनियां अंगीं । ठेवितों प्रसंगीं सांभाळीन ॥1॥
नेघावा जीं तुह्मी वाव बहु फार । धरूनि अंतर ठायाठाव ॥ध्रु.॥
वेव्हारें आलें तें समानें चि होतें । बळ नाहीं येथें चालों येत ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे आतां निवाडा च साटीं । संवसारें तुटी करुनि ठेलों ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Having applied one truth closely to my being, I hold it ready for the right occasion. Do not take too much distance, O Lord; maintain the proper measure of closeness. What comes through honest dealing is met in equal measure; brute force has no place here. Says Tuka, it is for the sake of this final reckoning that I have cut all ties with worldly life.
