Abhanga 3658
Tukārām: eyes-full I'll-see-Hari's-śrī-mukha.
When you realize all you truly want is to be face to face with someone you love.
When you are willing to bow completely, holding back nothing, for the sake of that one wish.
When simply seeing someone clearly feels like it would fulfill everything you need.
The verse
धरूनि हें आलों जीवीं । भेटी व्हावी विठोबासी ॥१॥
संकल्प तो नाहीं दुजा । महाराजा विनवितों ॥ध्रु.॥
पायांवरि ठेविन भाळ । येणें सकळ पावलें ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे डोळेभरी । पाहिन हरी श्रीमुख ॥३॥
Literal translation
Holding-in-jīvi-came — bhēṭī-with-Viṭhōbā. No-other-samkalpa — petitioning-mahā-rāja. Bhāḷa-on-pāya — sakaḷa-attained. Tukā: eyes-full-see-Hari's-śrī-mukha.
What it means
A 3-verse meeting-petition. I've come holding this in my life — let me meet Viṭhōbā; no other intention; I'll place my forehead on your feet; I'll see Hari's face fully.
