Transliteration
Sri Vishnu vishvadi mula mayaloladeva sarvesha parabommanendu janamAvudanu kanadodamaltiyim nambohudoA vichitrake namiso -- MANKUTIMMA
Interpretation
The concept of God is strange & abstract.
People describe Him or Her -- The Almighty God in many different ways
He is the one who cant be seen; yet people pray to Him, love Him, Fear him
He is the one -- Sri Vishnu who has woven the magic web of this Universe & connects everything inside it
He is The Creator & is Omnipotent
Such is his strangeness that He is everywhere; yet He is nowhere
Mankutimma, Salute to that strangeness; Salute to that Sri Vishnu, the Omnipotent
