Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
जन विजन जालें आम्हां । विठ्ठलनामा प्रमाणें ॥१॥
पाहें तिकडे बापमाय । विठ्ठल आहे रखुमाई ॥ध्रु.॥
वन पट्टण एकभाव । अवघा ठाव सरता जाला ॥२॥
आठव नाहीं सुखदुःखा । नाचे तुका कौतुकें ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Wilderness and society have become the same to me, measured by the name of Vitthal. Wherever I look, I see Vitthal as father and Rukumai as mother. Forest and city hold one single feeling; every place has become sufficient. There is no memory of pleasure or pain. Says Tuka, I dance simply for the joy of it.

The Necessity of Experience
