Tukaram, Poem 1525

I had no peace from the world till to-day. I was ever thinking of son, wife, wealth, and business; I was entangled in my vocations. Now my lot, it seems, has changed; it has wound up my affairs. I can see nothing behind or before me, hence my solicitude is born. The reason I look for the way, says Tuka, is that my worldly fortunes have sunk.
