1,Yaaga , yegya maadaleke  ,

Yogi yathiyaru   aaga leke  ,

Naga sayana narada vandhyana ,

Koodi bhajane  maado

What is the need of Yaagas and yagnas  ,

Why should you become yogi or a saint,

Join  togather   and sing about,

The god who sleeps on a serpent   and is  saluted by Narada.

2.Sadhu  sajjana   sanghava  maadi ,

Veda shastra  odhi nodi  ,

Modadindhali  Veda gamyana  ,

Pada  pankaja    dhyaniso

2.Make   assocition of devotes and saints,

Try to read    the  Vedas,

But before all that  meditate  ,

On the lotus feet of the God to  whom Vedas go.

3.Sathiyu , sutharu   idharu   yendhu  ,

Mathiye kettu   kedali beda  ,

Gathiyu thappi   hotha mele  ,

Sathiyu sutharu  Baruvaare?

3.Thinking that  wifes and sons are  there,

Do no  spoil your brain   and go in bad ways,

After   you miss your  proper way,

Would the wife and sons   come to you?

4.Hariya  smaraneya  maathra  dhina dalli  ,

Ghora duritha   vella  naasa,

Parama purusha   sri Purandara  Vittala ,

Nama  bhajane  mado

4.Only by taking resort to meditating on Hari  ,

Great sufferings     get destroyed ,

Please sing the names  of,

The divine God  Purandhara  vittala.
