Music: Rohana weerasinghe

Jeewithe kaviyak
adare soduruthama wadanak
Kandulali bidak hasa rali podak
pera nowidi rasayak
Pasupasin haba ena athawara
hara dama ya nohaki bodura
dukada iwasa dara gannata
sithata bala karana
hagum awadiwa mawe kavikama
Jeewithe kaviyak
adare soduruthama wadanak
Kandulali bidak hasa rali podak
pera nowidi rasayak
senahasin radi un nekadana
palayai nokiyama athaka
pauru padanam bidi dasa atha
wisira yana yame
kauru nam lanweda thaniyata
Jeewithe kaviyak
adare soduruthama wadanak
Kandulali bidak hasa rali podak
pera nowidi rasayak
