"Jaya Bhārata Jananiya Tanujāte, Jaya Hē Karnāṭaka Māte" (pronounced [dʒaja bʱaːɾat̪a dʒananija t̪anudʒaːt̪e | dʒaja heː kaɾnaːʈaka mat̪e]; lit. 'Victory to Thee Mother Karnataka, Daughter of Mother India') is a Kannada-language poem composed by Kuvempu. The poem was officially declared the state anthem of the Indian state of Karnataka in 2004. The poem envisages a Karnataka that recognises its position in the comity of Indian states, believes in peaceful co-existence with her sisters, but at the same time maintains her self-respect and dignity from a position of confidence and strength rather than insecurity and fear.
