The traditional way is to first completely drape oneself in the tallit and say:
בָּרוּך ×ַתָּה ×”' ×Ö±-×œ×”Öµ×™× ×•Ö¼ מֶלֶך ×”Ö¸×¢×•Ö¹×œÖ¸× ×ַשֶ×ר ×§Ö´×“Ö°×©Ö¸× ×•Ö¼ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו ×•Ö°×¦Ö´×•Ö¸× ×•Ö¼ לְהִתעַטֵף בְּצִיצִת
Baruch atta Ado-nay Elo-hei-nu Melech ha'olam asher kid-sha-nu b'mitz-vo-tav v'tzi-vanu l'hit-atef b'tzitzit.
Blessed are you, Eternal our G‑d, Ruler of the universe, who has sanctified us with Your commandments, and commanded us to wrap ourselves with tzitzit.
The original Hebrew is: ברוך אתה ד׳ אלוקינו מלך העולם אשר קידשנו במצוותיו וציוונו להטתף בציצית
The English is: Blessed are you, Lord, our God, King of the Universe, who hallowed us via his commandments and commanded us to wrap ourselves with the fringes (e.g. the fringes on the edge of the shawl).
The prayer over putting on the tallit, which sometimes appears on the collar of the tallit is:
Blessed are you, Eternal our God, ruler of the universe, who sanctified us with your commandments, and commanded us to to wrap ourselves in fringes.
It is the prayer over wrapping oneself in a tallit, though not every tallit contains this prayer. It's a matter of style.
The prayer is:
ברוך אתה יי אלהינו מלך העולם, אשר קדשנו במצותיו וציונו להתעטף בציצית׃
Transliteration:
Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu Melech ha-olam asher kidshanu bemitzvotav vetzivanu lehit'atef batzitzit.
Translation:
Blessed are You, ADONAI our God, Ruler of the universe, who has sanctified us with your commandments, and commanded us to wrap ourselves in Tzitzit.
