Hovu Ondu Paada Seri Sevi Maditu

Lyrics

Hovu Ondu Paada Seri Seve Maaditu

Paada Seri Seve Maadi Kasava Seritu

Idenitu Nyaayavo Idenitu Nyaayavo

Jalada Hanuiyu Tanuvu Nunisi Dharani Seritu

Dharani Seri Sharani Seri Ingi Hoyitu

Govu Ondu Kasaava Tinu Rasava Kottitu

Rasava Kottu Rasava Kottu Tanuvu Nigitu

Vrksa Ondu Phava Kottu Hasivu Nigitu

Hasivu Nigi Nelalu Kttu Nelake Seritu

Nyaaya Niti Dharmapaala Sachchidaananda Maata Keli

Bud'dhi Baarado Namage Bud'dhi Baarado

 Brief Explanation of Song

The flower offers its fragrance and beauty at the feet of the Lord during worship. It is doing service to the Lord.

The water is doing service, quenching your thirst and providing sustenance for all living things.

The cow is eating bitter grass and even garbage and giving sweet nectar in the form of milk. The cow urine, manure everything is useful to the world. The cow thus serves the world.

The tree gives fruits, shade and shelter to all. Thus the tree is serving this world.

Oh Man! You were created like nature to serve. How are you serving this world? 

The world gives you food, shelter, knowledge and so many things.

What do you give to the World in return?
