none other than Purandara dasa sang this song.
Adadella vollithe Ayittu
Namma Sridharana sevege sandhana sampt ayittu
Dandige betha hidiyyuvudakke, Mande Machi Nachuttide,
Hendathi Santathi Seviravagali, Dandige betha hidisidal ayya!
Gopala Butti hidiyuvudakke, Bhopathi garvisuttide,
Aa patani kula saviravagali, Gopala butti hidisidalayya!
Tulasi Malaya hakuvidikke, Arasanagi nachuttide
Sarasijaksha Purandara vitalanu, Tulasi male hakisiddanu!!
All that happened, happened for the good. It paved the way for the treasure of Sri Hari Seva!
To hold the Dhande I used to shy away, turning my head in distaste. May the tribe of my wife increase a thousand fold. She made me hold the Dhande!
To hold the Gopala butti, I used to shy away, thinking of myself to be a Lord on this earth! may the tribe of my wife increase a thousand fold! She was the one who made me hold the Gopala butti.
To wear the tulasi mala, I used to shy away, thinking of myself to be a great King! That lotus eyed Purandara vittala himself made me wear this tulasi male!
