ಉದಯ ನಕ್ಷತ್ರವೇ ṣ

udaya nakṣhatrave

nanna hr̥dayadi prakashisu

nanna priya yesuve

toṭagaranige sharonina gulabi

manekaṭṭuvavarige mulegallu

haḍagina nadikanige margadarshi

hasidavarige jivaroṭṭi

shastrigaḷige ata nakṣhatravadanu

pavitra sabhege ata dipastambha

andararavannu beḷagisuvavanu

nanna baḷige yesu athmadipa

bayarida jiṅke nirige toreyada

kurihiṇḍige ata kurubanadanu

kaḍina maragaḷige sebina maravada

nanna dehakke jivanadiyadanu
