Love poems from God. Tukaram Gatha Abhanga 36 - Paraviya nari mauli saman - पराविया नारी माउलीसमान

Tukaram Gatha Abhanga 36

पराविया नारी माउलीसमान । मानिलिया धन काय वेंचे ।।१।। 
न करितां परनिंदा द्रव्य अभिलाष । काय तुमचें यास वेंचे सांगा ।।२।।
बैसलिये ठायी म्हणतां रामराम । काय होय श्रम ऐसें सांगा ।।३।।

संतांचें वचनीं मानितां विश्वास । काय तुमचें यास वेंचे सांगा ।।४।।  

खरें बोलतां कोण लागती सायास । काय वेंचे यास ऐसें सांगा ।।५।।
तुका म्हणे देव जोडे याचसाठीं । आणीक ते आटी न लगे कांहीं ।।६।।

English

Translation

Saint Tukaram is showing a simple and sure way to reach God.

1. If you treat anyone else's woman as a mother, will you incur any financial expense?
2. If you do not criticize others and if you do not cover others' wealth, will you incur any financial expense?
3. If you chant the name of the Lord, from wherever you are sitting, will it be any exertion for you?
4. Will you lose anything if you place your trust in the truth told by saints?
5. Why do you find it difficult to speak the truth all the time? Do you have to spend any money?
6. Tuka says, you will meet God simply by following the advice given above. You do not have to make any other big effort.
