Kushalave Kshemave Song Lyrics In Kannada
ಕುಶಲವೇ ಕ್ಷೇಮವೇ ಸೌಖ್ಯವೇ
ಕುಶಲವೇ …ಕ್ಷೇಮವೇ …ಸೌಖ್ಯವೇ
ಓ ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರೀತಿ ಪಾತ್ರಳೇ …
ಓದಮ್ಮ ನನ್ನ ಓಲೆ…ಹೃದಯ ಭಾವಲೀಲೆ…
ಕಲ್ಪನೆಯೇ ಹೆಣ್ಣಾಗಿದೇ…ಕನಸುಗಳೇ ಹಾಡಾಗಿದೆ
ಯಾರೇ ನೀನು ಚೆಲುವೆ ಎಂದಿದೆ….
ಕುಶಲವೇ…ಕ್ಷೇಮವೇ…ಸೌಖ್ಯವೇ
ಒಂದೇ ಉಸಿರಿನಲೀ …ಪ್ರಥಮ ಪತ್ರ ಓದಿದೆ…
ಆ ನಿನ್ನ ಉಸಿರಿನಲೇ …ಈ ಜೀವ ಜೀವಿಸಿದೆ
ಮುದ್ದಾದ …ಬರಹ …ಮರೆಸಿದೆ …ವಿರಹ
ಅಕ್ಷರಕ್ಕೆ ಯಾರು …ಈ ಮಾಯಾಶಕ್ತಿ ತಂದರೋ
ಒಂದೊಂದು …ಪತ್ರವು …ಪ್ರೇಮದ …ಗ್ರಂಥವು
ಓಲೆಗಳಿಗ್ಯಾರು ಈ ರಾಯಭಾರ ತಂದರು
ಓಲೆಗಳೇ ಬಾಳಾಗಿದೆ …ಓದುವುದೇ ಗೀಳಾಗಿದೇ…
ಯಾರೇ ನೀನು ಚೆಲುವೆ ಅಂದಿದೆ……
ಕುಶಲವೇ…ಕ್ಷೇಮವೇ…ಸೌಖ್ಯವೇ
ಈ ಮಾತೆ ಮಧುರವಾಗಿದೆ
ತೆರೆದ ಹೃದಯವದು…ಪ್ರೇಮ ರೂಪವದು
ನೂರಾರು ಪ್ರೇಮದಾಸರು…ಪ್ರೀತಿಸಿ ದೂರವಾದರು
ನಾವಿಂದು ದೂರ ಇದ್ದರೂ ವಿರಹಗಳೇ ನಮ್ಮ ಮಿತ್ರರು
ನೋಡದೇ …ಇದ್ದರೂ …ಪ್ರೀತಿಸೋ …ಇಬ್ಬರೂ
ನೋಡೋರ ಕಣ್ಣಲ್ಲಿ ಏನೇನೋ ಹಾಡೋ ಹುಚ್ಚರು
ದೂರಾನೆ …ಆರಂಭ …ಸೇರೋದೆ …ಅಂತಿಮ …
ಅಲ್ಲಿವರೆಗೂ ಯಾರೂ ಈ ಹುಚ್ಚು ಪ್ರೀತಿ ಮೆಚ್ಚರು..
ದೂರದಲೇ ಹಾಯಾಗಿದೇ …ಕಾಯುವುದೇ ಸುಖವಾಗಿದೇ
ಓ ….ಯಾರೋ ನೀನು ಚೆಲುವ ಅಂದಿದೆ….

Stanza Wise Translation
ಕುಶಲವೇ … ಕ್ಷೇಮವೇ … ಸೌಖ್ಯವೇ
ಓ ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರೀತಿಪಾತ್ರಳೇ …
ಓದಮ್ಮ ನನ್ನ ಓಲೆ… ಹೃದಯ ಭಾವಲೀಲೆ…
Are you doing well? Are you safe? Are you truly happy, my beloved?
Please read this letter of mine, it’s not just words. It’s the song of my heart.
ಕಲ್ಪನೆಯೇ ಹೆಣ್ಣಾಗಿದೇ… ಕನಸುಗಳೇ ಹಾಡಾಗಿದೆ
ಯಾರೇ ನೀನು ಚೆಲುವೆ ಎಂದಿದೆ….
My imagination has taken the shape of a woman…
My dreams have turned into songs…
And now I ask again — who are you, this beauty who lives in my soul?
ಒಂದೇ ಉಸಿರಿನಲೀ … ಪ್ರಥಮ ಪತ್ರ ಓದಿದೆ…
ಆ ನಿನ್ನ ಉಸಿರಿನಲೇ …ಈ ಜೀವ ಜೀವಿಸಿದೆ
With one deep breath, I read your first letter…
And ever since, I’ve lived through your breath alone.
ಮುದ್ದಾದ ಬರಹ ಮರೆಸಿದೆ ವಿರಹ
ಅಕ್ಷರಕ್ಕೆ ಯಾರು ಈ ಮಾಯಾಶಕ್ತಿ ತಂದರೋ
ಒಂದೊಂದು ಪತ್ರವು ಪ್ರೇಮದ ಗ್ರಂಥವು
ಓಲೆಗಳಿಗ್ಯಾರು ಈ ರಾಯಭಾರ ತಂದರು
Your sweet handwriting made me forget my loneliness.
Who gave letters this magical power?
Every letter feels like a holy book of love…
And who brought these letters as messengers between us?
ಓಲೆಗಳೇ ಬಾಳಾಗಿದೆ ಓದುವುದೇ ಗೀಳಾಗಿದೇ
ಯಾರೇ ನೀನು ಚೆಲುವೆ ಅಂದಿದೆ
These letters have now become my life…
And reading them has become my daily prayer.
Again, I ask — who are you, this beautiful soul who lives inside me?
ಕುಶಲವೇ…ಕ್ಷೇಮವೇ…ಸೌಖ್ಯವೇ
ಈ ಮಾತೆ ಮಧುರವಾಗಿದೆ
ತೆರೆದ ಹೃದಯವದು… ಪ್ರೇಮ ರೂಪವದು
Are you safe, are you well, are you happy?
Even these simple words have become so sweet.
This open heart of mine — has now taken the shape of love.
ನೂರಾರು ಪ್ರೇಮದಾಸರು ಪ್ರೀತಿಸಿ ದೂರವಾದರು
ನಾವಿಂದು ದೂರ ಇದ್ದರೂ ವಿರಹಗಳೇ ನಮ್ಮ ಮಿತ್ರರು
Hundreds of lovers have loved and gone their separate ways…
And though we too are far apart, our separation itself has become our closest friend.
ನೋಡದೇ ಇದ್ದರೂ ಪ್ರೀತಿಸೋ ಇಬ್ಬರೂ
ನೋಡೋರ ಕಣ್ಣಲ್ಲಿ ಏನೇನೋ ಹಾಡೋ ಹುಚ್ಚರು
Even though we haven’t seen each other… we still love each other deeply.
But to those who see us, we probably look like mad people — singing songs of love without reason.
ದೂರಾನೆ ಆರಂಭ ಸೇರೋದೇ ಅಂತಿಮ
ಅಲ್ಲಿವರೆಗೂ ಯಾರೂ ಈ ಹುಚ್ಚು ಪ್ರೀತಿ ಮೆಚ್ಚರು
Our love began from a distance…
And it may only end when we finally meet.
Until then, no one will understand or respect this unique kind of love.
ದೂರದಲೇ ಹಾಯಾಗಿದೇ ಕಾಯುವುದೇ ಸುಖವಾಗಿದೇ
ಓ ….ಯಾರೋ ನೀನು ಚೆಲುವ ಅಂದಿದೆ….
Even in this distance, I find peace…
And somehow, even waiting feels like a kind of happiness.
Oh… who are you, my beautiful one, who has become my everything?
