pil̤l̤aṃgoviya cèluva kṛṣṇana |
èlli noḍidiri raṃgana èlli noḍidiri |
Have you seen the charming Kṛṣṇa holding the flute? Where have you seen Lord Ranga? Where have you seen him?

naṃdagopana maṃdiragal̤a saṃdugòṃdinali |
caṃda caṃdada gopabālara vṛṃdvṛṃdadali |
suṃdarāṃgada suṃdariyara hiṃdumuṃdinali |
aṃdadākal̤a kaṃda karugal̤a maṃdè maṃdèyali |
In Nandagopa's palace corridors, amidst groups of delightful cowherd boys, among beautiful maidens surrounding his graceful form, and amidst herds of charming calves.

śrī gurukta sadā sumaṃgal̤a yoga yogadali |
agamārthadòl̤agè māḍuva yāga yāgadali |
śrīgè bhāgyanāgi vartipa bhoga bhogadali |
bhāgavataru sadā bāgi paḍuva rāga rāgadali |
In auspicious moments of eternal yogic practices, in the profound rituals performed in Vedic sacrifices, as the embodiment of prosperity in joyous celebrations, and in the melodies sung by devoted bhāgavatas with deep reverence.

ī carācaradòl̤agè janaṃgal̤ācè īcèyali |
khecareṃdrana sutana rathada cauka pīṭhadali |

vīcukòṃḍada puraṃdaraviṭhalana locanāgradali |
Within the vast expanse of this animate and inanimate creation, on the chariot pedestal of the son of the celestial king, in the words of devotees fearlessly calling him "Mādhava," and in the gaze of Purandara Viṭhala's all-seeing eyes.
