📜 Original Marathi Lyrics:

आणीक दुसरें मज नाहीं आतां ।
नेमिले या चित्ता पासुनिया ॥१॥
पांडुरंग ध्यानी पांडुरंग मनी ।
जागृती स्वप्नी पांडुरंग ॥ध्रु.॥
पडिले वळण इंद्रियां सकळा ।
भाव तो निराळा नाही दुजा ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे नेत्री केली ओळखण ।
तटस्थ हे ध्यान विटेवरी ॥३॥
कृति: संत तुकाराम महाराज
🔤 English Transliteration:
aanik dusare maja nahi aata
nemile ya chitta paasuniya ||1||
Panduranga dhyani Panduranga mani
jagruti swapni Panduranga ||Dhr.||
padile valan indriya sakala
bhaav to nirala nahi duja ||2||
Tuka mhane netri keli olakhana
tatastha he dhyaan vitevari ||3||
🌸 English Meaning:
Now, I have no desire for anything else—
My heart has been firmly fixed in Him. ||1||
In my thoughts, it is Panduranga; in my mind, only Panduranga;
Even in waking and in dreams—it is Panduranga. ||Refrain||
All my senses have aligned to this one path;
There is no other feeling, no other love. ||2||
Tukaram says, I recognized Him through my eyes—
This unwavering meditation is on the brick where He stands. ||3||
🪔 Reflection:
This beautiful abhang by Sant Tukaram speaks of complete devotion—where nothing else matters anymore. The mind is no longer pulled in many directions. It is peacefully anchored in one name, one form—Panduranga. Whether awake or asleep, in thought or feeling, the saint finds only Vitthala. There is no second desire, no second path.
The line about the senses taking a new turn is especially deep—it tells us that even the body and its impulses begin to follow the path of devotion when the heart is truly filled with love. Tukaram’s recognition of the Lord on the brick is symbolic. It’s not just about seeing with the eyes, but feeling the divine presence with the heart. For him, Vitthala is not a distant God, but a living presence, constant and close.
In a world filled with distractions, this bhajan reminds us of the joy of focusing on just one truth, one name, one love. When the heart becomes steady like that brick, the divine becomes visible—not just in temples, but in our every breath.
