Sundar te dhyan / सुंदर ते ध्यान

 सुंदर ते ध्यान | A Beautiful Abhang by Sant Tukaram Maharaj

सुंदर ते ध्यान उभे विटेवरी ।
कर कटावरी ठेवूनियां ॥ध्रु.॥ 

तुळसी हार गळां कासे पीतांबर ।
आवडे निरंतर हेंचि ध्यान ॥१॥

मकरकुंडले तळपती श्रवणी ।
कंठी कौस्तुभमणि विराजित ॥२॥

तुका म्हणे माझे हेचि सर्व सुख ।
पाहीन श्रीमुख आवडीनें ॥३॥

जय जय विठ्ठल रखुमाई
जय जय विठ्ठल रखुमाई

गीत - संत तुकाराम

English  Lyrics 

Sundar te dhyan ubhe vitevari.
Kar katavari thevuniya. ||Dhr.||

Tulasi haar galaaṅ kaase peetaambar.
Aavade nirantar henchi dhyan. ||1||

Makar kundale talapti shravani.
Kanthi kaustubha mani virajit. ||2||

Tuka mhane maajhe hechi sarva sukh.
Pahīn Shrimukh aavadine. ||3||

Jaya Jaya Vittala Rakumayi Jaya Jaya Vittala Rakumayi 

English  Meaning 

That beautiful meditation stands upon the brick platform,
with hands gracefully arranged. ||Dhr.||

A Tulsi garland embellishes the neck, and a yellow silk garment is worn;
His constant meditation is ever delightful. ||1||

Adorned with earrings reminiscent of a crocodile’s form,
and the Kaustubha gem shining on the neck. ||2||

Tuka says, this alone is my complete bliss—
to behold the beloved divine face. ||3||
