II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

लांब धांवे पाय चोरी I

भरोवरी जनाच्या II

आतां कैसे होय याचे I

सिजतां काचे राहिलें II

खाय ओकी वेळोवेळां I

कैसी कळा राहेल II

तुका म्हणे भावहीण I

त्याचा सीण पावावा II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about the futility of talking the talk but not walking the walk, for it is like the One who do not act in a way that agrees with the things he says. In other words only when One gives enough time for his understanding to sink in, his words make an impact.

He says, just like an untimely plucking of fruit before it ripens leaves it raw, the food eaten invigorates not if the mouthful is spewed out before it gets digested. In another analogy he says, cooking must be given enough time so that not a grain of it remains uncooked.

Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the devotion without the deep seated longing is as wearying as the illness getting aggravated due to the medication not being given enough time to sink in and do its wonder."
