Syllable timings on this page are an estimate: derived from the chant's own guru/laghu (light/heavy syllable) prosody and scaled to this clip's real length, not a frame-exact forced alignment — so the highlight tracks the rhythm closely but may drift slightly from the exact syllable being sung. Each syllable is transliterated independently into Kannada, Devanāgarī, and IAST, matching the three-script display used elsewhere in the project.
