My try. Wow, all the lines seem to end with a kuril (short vowel sound)!

hyaMge irabEku saMsAradalli
hyaMge barEdittu pUjEnadalli

pakshi aMgaLAdalli baMdu kUtaMte
A kshaNadalli hAri kUtdaMte

nAnA pariyele saMte neredaMte
nAnA paMthada hIDidu hUdaMte

makkELADi mane kaTTidaMte
ATa sAkiMdu ALasi pUdaMte

vasatikAranu vasati kaMDaMte
huttAre vaddu huraTu hUdaMte

saMsAra pAShava nInE biDisayya
kaMsAri purandara viThalarAye

kmrasika, there were a couple of small mistakes in the lyrics which I have corrected:

hAnge irabEku saMsAradalli
prAchInadalli hyAnge baredittO

You should live in the world (samsAra)
As was laid down in ancient times


pakshi aMgaLAdalli baMdu kUtaMte
A kshaNadalli hAri hOdaMte

Like a bird that perches in the backyard
And flies away the very next moment


nAnA pariyali saMte neredaMte
nAnA paMthada hIDidu hUdaMte

Like the village fair which gathers in assorted ways
And along several paths disperses without a trace


makkaLADi mane kaTTidaMte
ATa sAkeMdu aLisi pOdaMte

Like children, who after building a house at play
Knock the play house down and go away


vasatikAranu vasati kaMDaMte
hottAreddu horaTu hOdaMte

Like the mason, who after building a dwelling
Goes his way the next morning


saMsAra pAShava nInE biDisayya
kaMsAri purandara viThalarAye

These fetters that hold me fast to this world,
Loosen them O Lord, Purandara Vittala, slayer of Kamsa
