Living


asheyemba taLavoDeda dONiyali doora teera yaana..

yaara leelegO yaaro Eno guriyirade bitta baaNa..

idu baaLa baaNa, ida tiLidenendaru tiLida dheeranilla..

halavu bageya maimaresuvaaTa, idu nijavu tooradalla..

nijavu toradalla..

Lyrics from a song in T.N. Seetharam's Matadaana. Ponderous. Poignant. Nija. Satya.

Truly a lovely poem by Adiga, and Kalinga Rao's singing is wonderful too.
