Tukaram, Poem 3513

A Gajra woman sets off to bring water home;
her thoughts are fixed on her pot of water,
she walks with her dress loose, her attention is
given to the pot. A boy sends a kite up into the
sky, he keeps hold of the string; the kite seems to
be far away, but his attention is fixed on it. A
thief carries off a treasure and buries it in a forest;
he lives amongst men and things, but his thoughts
are with the treasure. An adulteress looks after
her house; but her love follows her paramour, her
thoughts are with him. Tuka says, Wherever we
are busy, we should not let our thoughts stray from
the Lord of All.
