Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
सकिळकांच्या पायां माझी विनवणी । मस्तक चरणीं ठेवीतसें ॥1॥
अहो श्रोते वHे सकळ ही जन । बरें पारखुन बांधा गांठी ॥ध्रु.॥
फोडिलें भांडार धन्याचा हा माल । मी तंव हामाल भारवाही ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे चाली जाली चहूं देशी । उतरला कसीं खरा माल ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I place my humble plea at the feet of all. I bow my head to everyone's feet. O listeners, speakers, all people, examine well and tie the knot firmly. The treasury has been opened; this is the Master's merchandise. I am merely a porter, a carrier of the load. Says Tuka, this trade has spread in all four directions. The goods have proven genuine when tested.
