namma mane malnadu, namma ooru karnadu
namma preetiye kuhu kuhu kannada – (2)
ghama ghama ghama kasturiya ghama ghama ghama
shrigandaya kampagali enpagali sampagali nammma jivana
bhoomi taye tande banu harsee jodi na
namma mane malnadu, namma ooru karnadu
namma preetiye kuhu kuhu kannada
manasu magutana budhhi chigurtana nane kadayatana
kadu kaademma preeti tana
kali namma mitra, nadee namma nenta
bhenki namma guru kadu jivigale bandhu balaga
sada sada sada ulhasada sada sada sada utsahada
paragali teragali apawagali namma jivana
bhoomi taye tande banu harsee jodi na
namma mane malnadu, namma ooru karnadu
namma preetiye kuhu kuhu kannada
kadinalli baru bali ninda nadu huttitante aaga
iga kade namma nada gali
nuru devra illa jyati jar illa vonde illi yella
namma gaivatta prakruttiyagalli
hoas hosa hosa sapannagalu hosa hosa hosa narigalu
nanna sagali guni serali hasragali namma jivana
bhoomi taye tande banu harsee jodi na
namma mane malnadu, namma ooru karnadu
namma preetiye kuhu kuhu kannada
