Tukaram Gatha Abhanga 550 - Aapula vichaar kareen jeevaashee

Marathi Text

आपुला विचार करीन जीवाशीं । काय या जनाशीं चाड मज ॥१॥


आपुलें स्वहित जाणती सकळ । निरोधितां बळें दुःख वाटे ॥ध्रु.॥


आइको नाइको कथा कोणीतरी । जाऊनियां घरीं निजो सुखें ॥२॥


माझी कोण वोज जाला हा शेवट । देखोनियां वाट आणिकां लागे ॥३॥


तुका म्हणे भाकुं आपुली करुणा । जयाची वासना तया फळे ॥४॥

 

Roman Script

  1. Aapula vichaar kareen jeevaashee, kaay ya janaashee chaad maj 
  2. Aapule swahit jaanatee sakal, nirodhita bale dukkha vaate
  3. Aaiko naiko katha konee taree, jaauniya gharee nijo sukhe
  4. Maajhee kon voj jaala ha shevat, dekhoniya vaat aanika laage
  5. Tuka mhane bhaakoo aapulee karuna, jayaachee vaasana taya fale.

Translation

1.      I will ask my own self, regarding what I should do for my spiritual development. I do not attach any value to what the people want to say in this matter.

2.      Everyone knows what is good for them. If people are told to refrain from what karmas they are doing, they are going to feel bad.

3.      It doesn't matter if people listen to my Kirtana or they don't. It doesn’t matter even if they go and sleep at home.

4.      Have I really reached the end of my spiritual pursuit? I haven't. So, how can expect that I can guide them and show them the right path?

5.      Tuka says, I will plead to God for mercy, only for myself. As far as others are concerned, they will get the fruit from God, in accordance of their desire.
