II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

पशू ऐसे होती ज्ञानी I

चर्वणी विषयांचे II

ठेवुनियां लोभिं लोभ I

झाला क्षोभ आत्मत्वि II

केला आणिकां वाढवी पाक I

खाणे ताक मूर्खासी II

तुका म्हणे मोठा घात I

वाताहात हा देह II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, man falling prey to worldly pleasures and who follows an instinct rather than reasoning or discernment is more animal like, no matter how learned he may be.

He says, a Truly Wise stops short when it comes to revealing the innermost secrets, while the One who is eager to share his bookish knowledge devoid of experience is just like the blind leading the blind, for both fall into a ditch."
