This translation is based on an alternate version of the song -

P: rAma mantrava japiso hE manujA
A: A mantra I mantra necci nI keDabEDa sOmashEkhara tanna bhAmini korediha

1: kula hInanAdarau kUgi japisuva mantra sale bidiyoLu uccaripa mantra
halavu pApangaLa hadageDisuva mantra sulabhadindali svarga sUre kombuva
mantra

2: marutAtmaja nitya smaraNe mADuva mantra sarva rSigaLalli sErida mantra
durita kAnanakidu dAvAnala mantra poredu vibhISaNage paTTa kaTTida mantra

3: jnAnanidhi namma Ananda tIrttaru sAnurAgadi nitya sEvipa mantra
bhAnu kulAmbudhi sOmanenipa namma dInarakSaka purandara viTTalana mantra




P: rAma mantrava japiso hE manujA

P: Recite the rAma-mantra, O men!

A: A mantra I mantra necci nI keDabEDa sOmashEkhara tanna bhAmini korediha

AP: Do not settle for this and that (lesser) mantra; (Recite the) mantra that the moon-crowned (Shiva) taught his spouse[1]


1: kula hInanAdarau kUgi japisuva mantra
sale bIdiyoLu uccaripa mantra
halavu pApangaLa hadageDisuva mantra
sulabhadindali svarga sUre kombuva mantra

this mantra;
that can be recited aloud even by one who has lost caste/ who is low born, that should be proclaimed in the main streets,
that destroys sins of several kinds,
that leads us up the easy path to heaven. (Recite that rAma-mantra)

2: marutAtmaja nitya smaraNe mADuva mantra
sarva rSigaLalli sErida mantra
durita kAnanakidu dAvAnala mantra
poredu vibhISaNage paTTa kaTTida mantra

This mantra;

That is in the constant remembrance of the windborn (hanumAn),
That is the refuge of all the sages,
That is the forest-fire to the jungle of sins,
That saved vibhISaNa, and crowned him. (Recite that rAma-mantra)


3: jnAnanidhi namma Ananda tIrttaru
sAnurAgadi nitya sEvipa mantra
bhAnu kulAmbudhi sOmanenipa namma
dInarakSaka purandara viTTalana mantra


this mantra,
which our AnandatIrtha[2] storehouse of wisdom, constantly reveres, with affection,
which is the mantra of the scion of the solar dynasty, the succour of the poor, Our Purandara ViTTala. (Recite that rAma-mantra)

[1] Referring to Siva teaching pArvati that reciting rAma-nAma thrice is tantamount to reciting the sahasranama of VishNu.

[2] AnandatIrtha was a name of MadhvAcArya, the spiritual AcArya of the dvaita doctrine, that Purandara dAsa was affiliated to.
