Shri Lakshman,

Thanks for the lyrics.

While we have so many sites where this song can be heard - including many which have MLV's recording of this song - it is rather strange that I could not find one site which offers lyrics of this song !

Other than yr own resources like Text Books, CDs etc, if you do know of an Internet url link(s) where the complete lyrics of this song is displayed, pl let me know.

Thanks

PS : I have always found that obtaining lyrics of Kannada songs in the Internet, is often a very difficult and long-time consuming exercise.
