The Sanskrit text in Kannada script. The Roman line and the meaning are the same as in the original.
ಸ್ಥಿತಃ ಸ ಕಮಲೋದ್ಭವಸ್ತವ ಹಿ ನಾಭಿಪಙ್ಕೇರುಹೇ ಕುತಃ ಸ್ವಿದಿದಮಮ್ಬುಧಾವುದಿತಮಿತ್ಯನಾಲೋಕಯನ್।

Brahma, born of the lotus, seated in the lotus of your navel, could not see where this lotus in the ocean had come from. Eager to find out, he turned his face in every direction and so became four-faced, his eight eyes opening like lotuses.
ಮಹಾರ್ಣವವಿಘೂರ್ಣಿತಂ ಕಮಲಮೇವ ತತ್ಕೇವಲಂ ವಿಲೋಕ್ಯ ತದುಪಾಶ್ರಯಂ ತವ ತನುಂ ತು ನಾಲೋಕಯನ್।
ಕ ಏಷ ಕಮಲೋದರೇ ಮಹತಿ ನಿಸ್ಸಹಾಯೋ ಹ್ಯಹಂ ಕುತಃ ಸ್ವಿದಿದಮಮ್ಬುಜಂ ಸಮಜನೀತಿ ಚಿನ್ತಾಮಗಾತ್॥Maharnavavighurnitam kamalameva tatkevalam vilokya tadupashrayam tava tanum tu nalokayan, ka esha kamalodare mahati nissahayo hyaham kutah svididamambujam samajaniti chintamagat.
Seeing only that lotus tossed about on the great ocean, and not your body that supported it, he wondered: ‘Who am I, alone in the heart of this great lotus? Where did this lotus come from?’
ಅಮುಷ್ಯ ಹಿ ಸರೋರುಹಃ ಕಿಮಪಿ ಕಾರಣಂ ಸಮ್ಭವೇದಿತಿ ಸ್ಮ ಕೃತನಿಶ್ಚಯಃ ಸ ಖಲು ನಾಲರನ್ಧ್ರಾಧ್ವನಾ।

Deciding that this lotus must have some source, the wise one went down through the hollow of its stem by the power of his yoga, but he did not see your enchanting body.
ತತಸ್ಸಕಲನಾಲಿಕಾವಿವರಮಾರ್ಗಗೋ ಮಾರ್ಗಯನ್ ಪ್ರಯಸ್ಯ ಶತವತ್ಸರಂ ಕಿಮಪಿ ನೈವ ಸನ್ದೃಷ್ಟವಾನ್।
ನಿವೃತ್ಯ ಕಮಲೋದರೇ ಸುಖನಿಷಣ್ಣ ಏಕಾಗ್ರಧೀಃ ಸಮಾಧಿಬಲಮಾದಧೇ ಭವದನುಗ್ರಹೈಕಾಗ್ರಹೀ॥Tatassakalanalikavivaramargago margayan prayasya shatavatsaram kimapi naiva sandrishtavan, nivritya kamalodare sukhanishanna ekagradhih samadhibalamadadhe bhavadanugrahaikagrahi.
Then, searching every passage of the stem with great effort for a hundred years, he found nothing at all. Returning, he sat at ease in the lotus with a steady mind and took up the power of meditation, intent only on your grace.
ಶತೇನ ಪರಿವತ್ಸರೈರ್ದೃಢಸಮಾಧಿಬನ್ಧೋಲ್ಲಸತ್ಪ್ರಬೋಧವಿಶದೀಕೃತಃ ಸ ಖಲು ಪದ್ಮಿನೀಸಮ್ಭವಃ।

After a hundred years, his mind made clear by the awakening that came from firm meditation, the lotus-born Brahma, content, saw with his inner eye your wondrous form, never seen before, resting on the coils of the serpent.

I meditate on that form shown to Brahma: radiant with crown, bracelets, necklaces and armlets, a jewelled girdle and fine yellow silk, glowing like the kalaya flower, the Kaustubha gem shining at the throat.

‘Lord of Lakshmi, whose vast glory the Vedas reveal, Hari, victory, victory, Lord! By good fortune you have come before my eyes. Make my mind quickly fit for the work of creating the worlds.’ Praised by Brahma for your greatness in this way, protect me.
ಲಭಸ್ವ ಭುವನತ್ರಯೀರಚನದಕ್ಷತಾಮಕ್ಷತಾಂ ಗೃಹಾಣ ಮದನುಗ್ರಹಂ ಕುರು ತಪಶ್ಚ ಭೂಯೋ ವಿಧೇ।

‘Brahma, receive full and lasting skill to create the three worlds; accept my grace and practise austerity again; and may intense devotion to me, which achieves everything, be yours.’ Saying these words, you filled Brahma’s heart with joy.
ಶತಂ ಕೃತತಪಾಸ್ತತಃ ಸ ಖಲು ದಿವ್ಯಸಂವತ್ಸರಾನವಾಪ್ಯ ಚ ತಪೋಬಲಂ ಮತಿಬಲಂ ಚ ಪೂರ್ವಾಧಿಕಮ್।

Then, after practising austerity for a hundred divine years and gaining more power of austerity and of mind than before, seeing the lotus shaken by the wind on the water, strengthened by your power he drank up both wind and water.
ತವೈವ ಕೃಪಯಾ ಪುನಃ ಸರಸಿಜೇನ ತೇನೈವ ಸಃ ಪ್ರಕಲ್ಪ್ಯ ಭುವನತ್ರಯೀಂ ಪ್ರವವೃತೇ ಪ್ರಜಾನಿರ್ಮಿತೌ।

By your grace he then shaped the three worlds out of that same lotus and began to create living beings. Lord of Guruvayur, so full of such compassion, quickly protect me with glances moist with deep kindness.
