My temporal body is Basavanna

Remmavve · 12th century · from the Kannada original

Original

ಎನ್ನ ಸ್ಥೂಲ ತನುವೆ ಬಸವಣ್ಣನಯ್ಯಾ.ಎನ್ನ ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ತನುವೆ ಚೆನ್ನಬಸವಣ್ಣನಯ್ಯಾ.ಎನ್ನ ಕಾರಣ ತನುವೆ ಪ್ರಭುದೇವರಯ್ಯಾ,ಇಂತಿವರ ಕರುಣದಿಂದಲಾನು ಬದುಕಿದೆನಯ್ಯಾ ಕದಿರರೆಮ್ಮಿಯೊಡೆಯ ಗುಮ್ಮೇಶ್ವರಾ.

Translation

My temporal body is BasavannaMy subtle body is ChennabasavannaMy spiritual body is Allamma PrabhuMy life exists because of people like themO’Gummeshwara, Lord of Kadira-Remmavve
