Tukaram, Poem 2895

Why dost thou debar thyself from the might of His name? Why dost thou forget these famous tales? The swords hacked and hewed the body of Pralhada, but they made not the least impression on it. He called on Rama, Krishna and Hari, and the burly demons trembled. Let the power of these glorious deeds live on; Tuka’s longing is, O visit me!
