Kaya He Pandari Atma Ha Vittala ...

kaya hi pandhari atma ha vittal
nadato kewal pandurang

bhav bhakti bhima udak te wahe
barwa shobhathe pandurang

daya kshama shanty hechi waluwant
milalse that vaishnwancha

dyan dhyan pooja vivek anand
hachi veninad shobhatase

dash indriyacha ik mel kela
aisa gopalkala hot ase

dekhile pandhari dehi jani wani
ika janardhani wari kari
