Original
ಅಂಗ, ಲಿಂಗವ ವೇಧಿಸಿ, ಅಂಗ ಲಿಂಗದೊಳಗಾಯಿತ್ತು.ಮನ, ಲಿಂಗವ ವೇಧಿಸಿ, ಮನ ಲಿಂಗದೊಳಗಾಯಿತ್ತು.ಭಾವ, ಲಿಂಗವ ವೇಧಿಸಿ, ಭಾವ ಲಿಂಗದೊಳಗಾಯಿತ್ತು.ಚೆನ್ನಮಲ್ಲಿಕಾರ್ಜುನಾ, ನಿಮ್ಮ ಒಲುಮೆಯ ಸಂಗದಲ್ಲಿರ್ದು ಸ್ವಯಲಿಂಗವಾಯಿತ್ತು.
Translation
The body, invoking the Linga, became One with itThe mind, invoking the Linga, became One with itThe emotions, invoking the Linga, became One with itO’ Chenna Mallikarjuna, having received your love & benevolence, my whole Self evolved into a Linga
