ಹೊಸ ವರುಷದ ಆದಿಯಿದು

ಹೊಸ ಹರುಷಕೆ ನಾಂದಿಯಿದು

ಹೊಸ ಚಿಗುರಿನ ಕಳೆಯಿದು

ಹೊಸ ಬೆಳಕಿನ ಕಾಂತಿಯಿದು

ಬೇವು-ಬೆಲ್ಲವ ಸವಿದು,

ಸ್ನೇಹದಿಂದಲಿ ಬೆರೆತು,

ಹೊಸ ಭರವಸೆ, ಹೊಸ ಉಲ್ಲಾಸದಿ

ಒಟ್ಟಾಗಿ ಸಂಭ್ರಮಿಸುವ ಬಾ.

ಸ್ನೇಹಿತರೇ,

ನಮ್ಮ RKS ನ ಯುಗಾದಿ ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮಕ್ಕೆ ನಿಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ನಮ್ಮ ವಿಶ್ವಾಸದ ಆಮಂತ್ರಣ. ನಮ್ಮ ಸಂಗೀತ ಸಂಜೆಯ ಅಮೋಘ ಯಶಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ತಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ನಮ್ಮ ಮನಃಪೂರ್ವಕ ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು. ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮದ ನಂತರ ಬಂದ, ತಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯೆ - ಪ್ರೋತ್ಸಾಹ  ನಮ್ಮ ಸಮಿತಿ ಹಾಗೂ ಕಾರ್ಯಕರ್ತರ ಉತ್ಸಾಹ ಮತ್ತು ಆತ್ಮವಿಶ್ವಾಸಗಳನ್ನು ದ್ವಿಗುಣಗೊಳಿಸಿದೆ. ಬನ್ನಿ, ಮತ್ತೊಮ್ಮೆ ನಮ್ಮ ಯುಗಾದಿ ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮದಲ್ಲಿ ಒಟ್ಟಾಗಿ ಸೇರಿ ರುಚಿಯಾದ ಭೋಜನ, ಸೊಗಸಾದ ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮಗಳು ಹಾಗೂ ಸ್ನೇಹ-ಮಿಲನಗಳಿಂದ ಸವಿನೆನಪಿನ ಕ್ಷಣಗಳನ್ನು ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಸೋಣ.
