Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
दीप न देखे अंधारा । आतां हें चि करा जतन ॥1॥
नारायण नारायण । गांठी धन बळकट ॥ध्रु.॥
चिंतामणीपाशीं चिंता । तत्वता ही नयेल ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे उभयलोकीं । हे चि निकी सामोग्री ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
A lamp knows no darkness. Now guard this treasure well. The Name of Narayana is wealth to be held firmly in the knot of your garment. Near the wish-fulfilling gem, no worry can approach. Says Tuka, this is the finest provision for both this world and the next.
