ಜಯ ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ,ಜಯ ಹೇ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ಮಾತೆ
ಜಯ ಸುಂದರ ನದಿವನಗಳ ನಾಡೇ ಜಯ ಹೇ ರಸ ಋಷಿಗಳ ಬೀಡೆ.
ಭೂದೇವಿಯ ಮಕುಟದ ನವಮಣಿಯೆ ಗಂಧದ ಚಂದದ ಹೊನ್ನಿನ ಗಣಿಯೆ
ರಾಘವ ಮಧುಸೂಧನರವತರಿಸಿದ ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ !
ಜನನಿಯ ಜೋಗುಳ ವೇದದ ಘೋಶ,ಜನನಿಗೆ ಜೀವವು ನಿನ್ನಾವೇಶ,
ಹಸುರಿನ ಗಿರಿಗಳ ಸಾಲೇ, ನಿನ್ನಯ ಕೊರಳಿನ ಮಾಲೆ,
ಕಪಿಲ ಪತಂಜಲ ಗೌತಮ ಜಿನನುತ,ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ !
ಶಂಕರ ರಾಮಾನುಜ ವಿದ್ಯಾರಣ್ಯ,ಬಸವೇಶ್ವರರಿಹ ದಿವ್ಯಾರಣ್ಯ
ರನ್ನ ಶಡಕ್ಷರಿ ಪೊನ್ನ,ಪಂಪ ಲಕುಮಿಪತಿ ಜನ್ನ
ಕಬ್ಬಿಗರುದಿಸಿದ ಮಂಗಳ ಧಾಮ,ಕವಿ ಕೋಗಿಲೆಗಳ ಪುಣ್ಯಾರಾಮ
ನಾನಕ ರಾಮಾನಂದ ಕಬೀರರ ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ !
ತೈಲಪ ಹೊಯ್ಸಳರಾಳಿದ ನಾಡೇ,ಡಂಕಣ ಜಕಣರ ನಚ್ಚಿನ ಬೀಡೆ
ಕೃಷ್ಣ ಶರಾವತಿ ತುಂಗ,ಕಾವೇರಿಯ ವರ ರಂಗ
ಚೈತನ್ಯ ಪರಮಹಂಸ ವಿವೇಕರ,ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ !
ಸರ್ವ ಜನಾಂಗದ ಶಾಂತಿಯ ತೋಟ,ರಸಿಕರ ಕಂಗಳ ಸೆಳೆಯುವ ನೋಟ
ಹಿಂದೂ ಕ್ರೈಸ್ತ ಮುಸಲ್ಮಾನ,ಪಾರಸಿಕ ಜೈನರುದ್ಯಾನ
ಜನಕನ ಹೋಲುವ ದೊರೆಗಳ ಧಾಮ,ಗಾಯಕ ವೈಣಿಕರಾರಾಮ
ಕನ್ನದ ನುಡಿ ಕುಣಿದಾಡುವ ದೇಹ,ಕನ್ನದ ತಾಯಿಯ ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಗೇಹ
ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ,ಜಯ ಹೇ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ಮಾತೆ
