Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
 संकिल्पला तुज सकळ ही भाव । कोण एक ठाव उरला तेथें ॥1॥
 इंिद्रयव्यापार जेंजें कांहीं कर्म । करितों ते धर्म सकळ तुझे ॥ध्रु.॥
 माझें हित फार लागला विचार । तुज सर्व भार चालवणें ॥2॥
 जो कांहीं लौकिक करिसी तो तुझा । अपमान पूजा कांहींतरि ॥3॥
 तुका ह्मणे मी तों राहिलों नििंश्चत । तुज कळे हित तैसें करीं ॥4॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I have offered You all my devotion; what corner remains that is not Yours? Every act of the senses, whatever work I do, all that merit belongs to You. My greatest interest is this one thought: that You must carry my every burden. Whatever worldly honor or insult comes, it is Yours in any case. Says Tuka, I remain at ease, knowing You will do what is best for me.
