from celebrated Bhakti poet Tukaram's vast oeuvre, each Marathi abhanga
followed by two English interpretations-Shanta Gokhale's and Jerry
Pinto's. Hailed as one of the greatest poets in the Marathi language, Tukaram
composed poems that are packed with hidden layers of meaning. So, two
independent translations of each abhanga give readers a chance to gain a
deeper understanding of the original. The saint-poet's original abhangas are
included in the book alongside the translations as Roman transliterations.
Tukaram's abhangas, copied by many hands and gathered over several years,
do not follow any particular order. But the translators, keen to give their
selection a narrative order that would offer readers a view of the abhangas
beyond their immediate sense, have arranged them into three groups-
'Tukaram and poetry', 'Tukaram and life' and 'Tukaram and Vitthala'.
Pinto does what Arun Kolatkar and Dilip Chitre had done in their translations
of Tukaram-recast the abhangas as independent poems that run parallel to
Tukaram's creations. Gokhale, on the other hand, stays as close as possible
to the sense, movement, rhythm and form of the originals. Together, their
translations capture the mystic wisdom and the musicality of Tukaram's
hymns, and open a whole world of meaning for today's readers.
