Sinhala Version
Sri Lanka Matha,
Apa Sri Lanka
Namo Namo Namo Namo Matha.
Sundara siri bharini,
Surandi athi sobhamana Lanka
Dhanya dhanaya neka mal pala thuru piri jaya bhoomiya ramya
Apa hata sapa siri setha sadhana,
Jee vanaye Matha!
Piliganu mana apa bhakti pooja,
Namo Namo Matha.
Apa Sri Lanka,
Namo Namo Namo Namo Matha.
Obave apa vidya,
Obamaya apa sathya.
Obave apa shakti,
Apa hada thula bhakti.
Oba apa aloke,
Apage anuprane.
Oba apa jeevana ve,
Apa muktiya obave,
Nava jeevana demine,
Nithina apa pubudhu karan Matha.
Gnana veerya vadavamina ragena yanu,
Mana jaya bhoomi kara.
Eka mavekuge daru kala bavina,
Yamu yamu wee nopama,
Prema vadamu sama bheda durara da,
Namo Namo Matha.
English Translation
Mother Lanka we worship Thee!
Plenteous in prosperity, Thou,
Beauteous in grace and love,
Laden with grain and luscious fruit,
And fragrant flowers of radiant hue,
Giver of life and all good things,
Our land of joy and victory,
Receive our grateful praise sublime,
Lanka! we worship Thee!
Thou gavest us knowledge and truth,
Thou art our strength and inward faith.
Our light divine and sentient being,
Breath of life and liberation,
Inspire us forever.
In wisdom and strength renewed,
Ill-will, hatred, strife all ended,
In love enfolded, a mighty nation,
Marching onward, all as children of one mother,
Leads us, Mother, to fullest freedom.
