Tukaram, Poem 390

When my doubts are dispelled, I perceive a
sweet savour, but who can care for what is
vapid and tasteless? Now do not deceive me
falsely: whither can I go with my entreaties con-
tinually? “What evil is it if life departs? what good
if it linger on? Tuka says, You have created us
children to love You, so how can you distinguish
between us?
