  Here is a composition by Shri Purandaradasaru. Song describes about the actual worship of GOD
  is different from what we are performing in today's life style. Though the word PURITY is not an appropriate word for kannada word “maDi”,
  I did not find a suitable word.
  
  Lyric follows:
  
  rAga: bEhAg
  tALa: Adi
  rachane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru
  
  maDi maDi maDi eMdu aDigaDige hAruve maDi mADuva bage bEruMTu /pa/
  poDavi pAlakana padadhyAnavanu biDade mADuvudu adu maDiyu /anupa/
  
  baTTeya nIroLagaddi oNagisi uTTukoMDare adu maDiyalla
  hoTTeyoLagina kAma krOdhava biTTu naDedare adu maDiyu /1/
  
  hiriyara gurugaLa haridAsarugaLa charaNake eraguvudu bhakutiyali
  paripAlisu eMdu puraMdaraviThalana iruLu hagalu neneyuvude maDiyu /2/
  
  Meaning of the song:
  
  Jumping (hAruve) every step (aDigaDige) saying (eMdu) purity (maDi maDi maDi),
  there is a different way (bEruMTu) to perform (mADuva bage) Purity (maDi)
  Purity (adu maDiyu) is performing (biDade mADuvudu) meditation/chanting (padadhyAnavanu) about the King (pAlakana) of this Earth (poDavi)
  
  Purity is not (adu maDiyalla) in washing (nIroLagaddi) clothes (baTTeya) and wear (uTTukoMDare) them after drying (oNagisi) them
  Purity is (adu maDiyu) leaving away (biTTu naDedare) the lust-anger (kAma krOdhava) from the stomach (hoTTeyoLagina)
  Bow (eraguvudu) at the feet (charaNake) of elders (hiriyara), teachers (gurugaLa),
  and devotees of VISHNU (haridAsarugaLa) with devotion (bhakutiyalli)
  Purity is (maDiyu) remembering (neneyuvude) PURANDARAVITHALA (puraMdaraviThalana) all the day (hagalu) and night (iruLu)
  and requesting HIM to protect (paripAlisu eMdu)

  Meaning of the song:
  
  ugAbhOga:
  
  Merciful person (kRupALu), please pardon (opppikAyo) the
  thousands (sAsiragaLa) of mistakes (tappu) committed by me
  Destroyed the three towns (muppuravanaLidaMtha),
  (muppura - 3 towns built by the 3 sons of demon Tarakasura)
  Praise worthy by saints (munIMdra vaMdya)
  apramEyane - (that which is beyond any measurement)
  How can SHE (KAMALA) know (ballaLe) who born (puTTidavaLu)
  from water (appu nidhiyalli) of YOUR (ninna) astonishing (adbhuta)
  excellence (mahimegaLa) THIMMAPPA (timmappa) who is adorned
  with black (kappu) shining of cloud (mEghakAMtiyoppuva)
  SHRIPURANDARAVITHALA is super-natural (aprAkRutarUpa)
  
  Song:
  
  I (nAnu) became the shameless person (bhaMDanAdenu)
  in this worldly life (saMsAradi)
  HARI (hariye) how can YOU keep quiet (irabahude)
  knowing my status (kaMDu kANada hAge)
  
  Enough (sAkAytu) of saluting (kaimugidu) to
  idols/statue wherever I saw (kaMDa kallugaLige)
  Turn around (balu tirugide) to the houses (manege)
  of blaming persons (niMdegArara)
  My (enna) mind/knowledge (mati) became idle (maMdavAyitai) like a frog (shuMDAlanaMte)
  PUNDARIKAKSHA (puMDarIkAkSha) YOU (nI) save (karuNisai) me early (bEga)
  
  I have been deceited (nA mOsahOde) by listening (mAtu kELi)
  to the idiot/foolish perons (buddhi hInara)
  Mind (manavu) became wicked (keTTu hOyitu)
  without proper awareness (shuddhi illade)
  Father (taMde) please save (uLuhu nI) me by
  providing (dayagaidu) proper guidance and
  principles (tatvada siddiyanu) of SHRI PURANDARAVITHA
  (shrIpuraMdaraviThalana) praised by MADHWA (madhvanuta)

  Dear Lakshmanji
  
  bhajare hanumaMtaM mAnasa bhajare -
  This seems to be a traditional song and appears to be not composed by Shri Kanakadasaru (signature is kaginele Adikeshava/bADadAdi kEshava NOT chennakeshava). But many websites have mentioned that it is composed by Shri Kanakadasa. Since it is traditional song - lyric will differ from person to person who wish to sing the song. Meaning of the 2 lyrics are almost similar.
  Smt. Shyamala Bhave composed the music for the song sung by Shri Vageesha bhat, they have not mentioned Shri Kanakadasa, but mentioned as traditional.
  
  Listen to both versions here:

  Here is a beautiful composition by Shri Purandaradasaru, referring to the men who pretend to be good by saying lies.
  Every sentence explains the un-believable actions like cat preparing the food, frog dancing like butter fly, sowing the turmeric
  powder in the soil to get fresh turmeric etc., all of them are lies.
  
  Lyric follows:
  
  rAga: pUrvi kalyANi/sohni
  tALa: Adi
  rachane: shrI puraMdaradAsaru
  
  suLLu nammallillavayya
  suLLE nammane dEvaru /pa/
  
  bekku bakkari mADodu kaMDe
  iliyu oleya chAchoda kaMDe
  mekke kAyi kaMDenavva tekke gAtara (gaDatara) /1/
  
  kappe pAtara kuNiyoda kaMDe
  EDi maddaLe baDivuda kaMDe
  toMDe kAyi kaMDenavva haMDe gAtara (gaDatara)
  (mNasina kAyi kaMDe onake gAtara) /2/
  
  arishina puDiya bittida kaMDe
  gasegaseyannu eNisOda kaMDe
  puraMdara viThThalana pAdava kaMDe parvata gAtara (gaDatara) /3/
  
  Meaning of the song:
  
  LIE is not with us (suLLu nammallillavayya),
  But it is our home diety (suLLe nammane dEvaru)
  
  I have seen - is common for all (kaMDe)
  
  The cat (bekku) preparing (mADOdu) the roti/chapati (bakkari)
  The rat (iliyu) cleaning (chAchodu) the wood-stove (oleya)
  The over-sized (tekke gAtara) mekke kAyi
  Botonical name of mekke kayi - Citrullus colocynthis
  
  The frog (kappe) dancing (kuNiyOdu) like butter-fly (pAtara)
  The crab (EDi) beating (baDivuda) the drums (maddale)
  The ivy gourd (toMDe kAyi) is in the size of very big vessel (haMDe gAtara)
  {The green Chilli (meNasina kAyi) is in the size of pounding pestle (onake gAtara)}
  
  Sowing (bittida) the powder (puDiya) of turmeric (arishina)
  Counting (eNisOdu) the grains of poppy seeds (gasegaseyannu)
  PURANDARA VITHALA's feet (pAdava) is in the size of mountain (parvata gAtara)

  Nice selection, Sudharshan!
  
  I checked out the audios. Padmini version is in Revagupti but Vidyabushana seems to have sung in a different raga. Sounds like Madhuvanti.
