Tukaram, Poem 2874

I have come back to my earlier wish; what I
delight in is this bond of servant and master.
Give me speedily the gift I have asked for; I still
preserve the true principle with me. Of this I
avail myself to secure a word from Thee; showing
this as my passport I shall reach my goal. Tuka
says, How many knots must I cut to reach Thee,
though the sight of Thee cuts the knots of the
world?
