II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

काय ढोरांपुढे घालूनि मिष्टान्न I
खरासी विलेपन चंदनाचे II
नको नको देवा खळाची संगती I
रस ज्या पंगती नाही कथे II
काय सेज बाज माकडा विलास I
अळंकारा नाश करुनि टाकी II
तुका म्हणे काय पाजुनि नवनीत I
सर्पा विष थीत अमृताचे II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, O' GOD, let me not be in the company of those who want to spend their rare human birth on mundane existence than pursuing the journey of Self Realisation.
Illustrating this with beautiful analogies he says, keeping the company of Unwise is as futile as serving sweets to animals or smearing sandalwood paste on a donkey.
He says,  it is as pointless as giving luxuries to a monkey, for it knows neither the worth of a soft bed nor ornaments,
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, just like milk offered to a snake becomes poison in the end, the seeker of Self Quest must refrain from keeping the company of Unwise, for just like all looks yellow to the jaundiced eye, they know not what unique opportunity they are wasting, their rare human birth."
