Tukaram, Poem 2405

Time stands by you, though you know it not; he will plug up your ears and cast you into slumber. How smart and watchful you yourself should be! Mark, time stands by you; he suffers you not to give anything to anybody. Though sixty years have passed by, time still is chasing you. Time hovers around you; he suffers not Rama to approach your tongue. Tuka says, your own deeds conspire with time, away with them, away with them!
