Tukārām's give-me-sevā-facing-you; we-go-out-with-chitta-vitta-at-jīvā-varī canonical-petition
The verse
सन्मुख चि तुम्हीं सांगावी जी सेवा । ऐसे माझे देवा मनोरथ ॥१॥
निघों आम्ही कांहीं चित्तवित्त घरें । आपुल्या उदारें जीवावरी ॥ध्रु.॥
बोल परस्परें वाढवावें सुख । पाहावें श्रीमुख डोळेभरी ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे सत्य बोलतों वचन । करुनी चरण साक्ष तुझे ॥३॥
Literal translation
Facing-me, you-tell-me-the-sevā — my-manōrātha-Deva. We-go-out chitta-vitta-house — by-our-udāra at-life-cost. Mutual-bola — sukha-grows — fill-eyes-with-śrī-mukha. Tukā: true-vachana — with-feet-as-sākṣa.
What it means
A 3-verse sevā-petition. Tell me the sevā to my face; we'll abandon chitta-vitta-house for it; let me fill my eyes with your face; this is true vachana with your feet as witness.
