Tukaram, Poem 3086

I am treated with contempt; what have I to do with names or forms? No honour is shown to me, no message is sent for me. Taking thee to be my father and mother, I approached thee familiarly; but I found thou hast many relatives in the world. Tuka says, Now I will fold my hands and throw myself on the ground here where I am.
