Lyrics and Translations:

Nimishamainanu Madi Nilchi Nirmalamuga
Linga Jeevaavesulanu Gaanchi Bhangapadaka
Pooja Madiyundu Jeruta Poornapadavi
Paramu Gorina Nilicheya Baagu Vema!

Holding the mind, still and pure - in every moment,
Being untouched by external influences…
To reach a state of prayerfulness, is paramount!
One who stays unwavered in his desire for the ultimate , shall stand strong!

Atmashudhi leni acharamadi ela
Bhandashudhi leni pakamela
Chittashudhi leni Shiva Pujalelara
Vishwadabhi rama vinura vema

Of what use is a ritual, when your heart isn’t pure
Of what use is a gourmet meal, in a dirty vessel
Of what use is a prayer to Shiva, from an impure mind!
O admirer of the creation, Vema, listen!

kanti loni vani garakanthuneregumu
Kanti loni vani mintajudu
Kannuminnu hrudayakamalamanderugumu
Vishwadabhi rama vinura vema

Know the Divine that you are beholding in your eyes,

Know that the same Divine is in the space around as well,

Know that Divine which is within(in your eyes) and Without (around in the space) in your blossomed heart too

O admirer of the creation, Vema, listen!

aksharasi venta adavula ventanu

Kondarala godu guduvanela

Hrudayamandu shivudu vunduta geliyada?

Vishwadabhi rama vinura vema

Why go behind the scholars, or the wild woods

Or the mountains,

Shiva resides right here, in your heart, didnt you know?
O admirer of the creation, Vema, listen!
