Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
तुह्मां ठावा होता देवा । माझें अंतरींचा हेवा ॥1॥
होती काशानें सुटका । तरि हे वैकुंठनायका ॥ध्रु.॥
नसतें सांभािळलें। जरि तुह्मीं आश्वासिलें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे कृपाळुवा । बरवा केला सावाधावा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
You knew all along, O God, the longing hidden within my heart. How could there have been any escape from that? O Lord of Vaikuntha, tell me. You rescued me even when there was nothing real to rescue, simply because You had given me assurance. Says Tuka, O merciful One, You made a fine rescue indeed.
