II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

पर्जन्य पडावे आपुल्या स्वभावे I

आपुल्याला देवे पिके भूमी II

बीज तेचि फळ येईल शेवटी I

लाभ हानी तुटी ज्याची तया II

दीपचिये अंगी नाही दुजा भाव I

धणी चोर साव सारिखेची II

काऊळे ढोंपरा कंकर तित्तिरा I

राजहंसा चारा मुक्ताफळे II

तुका म्हणे येथे आवडी कारण I

पिकला नारायण जया तैसा II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, do good to others. It will come back in unexpected ways. It is our outlook that decides how we will be rewarded.

Illustrating with  beautiful analogies he says, rain showers at its own free will but it is the quality of soil and that of the seeds that decides the yield One gets out of it, for what One sows, so shall he reap.

In another analogy he says, the light of the lamp brightens the path without bias. It is least concerned of whether it comforts a pious soul or aids a burglar. It is the intention that decided the outcome One gets of his actions.

He says, One seeks food according to his liking. The food of Crows and Partridges differ from that of Swan, a mythological bird symbolising the Supreme Spirit, who is believed to eat pearls.

He says, a devotion to the Supreme Lord being the most cherished food of thought for His seeker rewards him with a blessing of eternal happiness forever 

Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the Supreme Lord Narayan rewards according to the outlook with which One seeks Him."
