Tukaram, Poem 909

He is not fatigued with guarding the three
worlds; what matters our burden to Him?
When a toad lies in the hollow of a stone, who puts
food in its mouth? Birds and serpents gather up no
store, yet the infinite one protects them. Tuka
says, If I lay my burden on Him, my sea of mercy
will not disappoint me.
