I have bound my senses to the Linga
Kamamma · 12th century · from the Kannada original
Original
ಎನ್ನ ಕರಣಂಗಳ ಲಿಂಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಕಟ್ಟುವೆಗುರುಲಿಂಗಜಂಗಮದ ಕಾಲ ಕಟ್ಟುವೆವ್ರತಭ್ರಷ್ಟರ ನಿಟ್ಟೊರಸುವೆ,ಸುಟ್ಟು ತುರುತುರನೆ ತೂರುವೆ,ನಿರ್ಭೀತ ನಿಜಲಿಂಗದಲ್ಲಿ.
Translation
I have bound my senses to the LingaMy time is in the service of Guru, Linga & AsceticsI chide the ones who have broken their vowsI seek them to burn their misdeedsAnd come within Nirbheeta Nijalinga
