Jaya Bharata Jananiya Tanujate, Jaya he Karnataka Maate (Kannada pronunciation: [Jaya bhārata jananiya tanujāte, jaya karnāṭaka māte])(English: Victory to you Mother Karnataka, The Daughter of Mother India!) is a Kannada poem, which was composed by the Indian national poet Kuvempu. The poem was officially declared the state anthem of the Indian state of Karnataka on 6 January 2004.[1][2]

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.
