II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

तुज घालोनिया पूजितो संपुटी I
परि तुझ्या पोटी चौदा भुवने II
तुज नाचूनि दावू कौतुका I
परि रूप रेखा नाही तुज II
तुजलागी आम्ही गात असो गीत I
परि तू अतीत शब्दहुनि II
तुजलागी आम्ही घातीयेल्या माळा I
परि तू वेगळा कर्तृत्वासी II
तुका म्हणे आता होऊनि परिमित I
माझे कांही हित विचारावे II

"We, with our limited worldly perspective, can only have a small understanding of GOD, the Infinite, for He is a mystery that cannot be canned or crated no matter how much we try. Despite this we envisage Him, whom our limited speech cannot describe, and our limited faculty of seeing cannot behold. This thought is elucidated by Sant Tukaram Maharaj in this composition.
O' GOD, he says, paradoxical it is to worship You as a small idol when the All pervading and All Enveloping Gargantuan You hold within the Fourteen Worlds.
We praise You by singing and dancing, but You cannot be understood in a state of separation but only by Realisation
O' GOD, he says, we sing Your glory but You dwell in the heart where praise is, for in the silence of heart GOD speaks.
He says, we wear garlands of Tulsi leaves to please GOD. We do it because we think it pleases Him who doesn't ask for anything.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj aspires to experience the transcendent glory of GOD unfolding in his very rare human birth."
