II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

लटिकियाच्या आशा I

होतो पडीलो वोळसा I

होऊनिया दोषा I

पात्र मिथ्या अभिमाने II

बरवी उघडली दृष्टी I

नाही तरी होतो कष्टी I

आक्रंदसे सृष्टी I

मात्र या चेष्टांनी II

मरणाची नाही शुद्धी I

लोभी प्रवर्तली बुद्धी I

परती तो कधी I

घडेचि ना माघारी II

सांचुनि मरे धन I

लावी पोरांसी भांडण I

नाही नारायण I

तुका म्हणे स्मरिला.II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the journey of  'Self Awakening' saved me, else there seemed to be no way out of the maelstrom of 'My body is the true me' and the unending desire of 'Me and Mine', that was drowning me in the abyss of repeated sufferings since time immemorial. 

He says, the whole world has become a marionette, a puppet worked by string of ' My body is the true me' idea.

No one remembers that there is something called Death, the predator on prawl from the moment he was born, who when strikes nothing remains.

He says, the man who gave more importance to earning riches than the Name Worship of GOD Narayan left this world carrying nothing with him, and in the end the fortune he left behind became a curse when his children started fighting over who gets what and how much of it.
