Iye Nathi Wenasak Lyrics (ඊයේ නැති වෙනසක්) by Kasun Kalhara

A change that wasn’t there yesterday,
I saw it in you,
and with a feeling that wasn’t there yesterday,
you wrapped up my heart
today is not like yesterday,
tomorrow is not like today,
truly, who are you,
who fills my heart
with so many different feelings?

Flowing in like a drop of dew,
it is you who cool my body and mind,
then, becoming a fierce ray of sun,
you burn me….
shooting, shooting from your starry eyes,
arrows of love
today is not like yesterday,
tomorrow is not like today,
truly, who are you….

Like a wild gust of wind
blowing through,
it is you who threw me into chaos and left,
then, like a tiny bird,
you come and settle again….
with a soft smile, right beside me
today is not like yesterday,
tomorrow is not like today,
truly, who are you….

A tender love song about a beloved who is beautifully, maddeningly changeable. The singer keeps noticing a change that wasn’t there yesterday, a new feeling each day that wraps around his heart, and marvels: today is not like yesterday, tomorrow won’t be like today, so truly, who are you? She fills him with a constant flux of feeling, and he loves her for it even as he cannot pin her down.

The middle catches her contradictions in weather and light. She flows in like a cooling drop of dew that soothes his body and mind, and then, in the same breath, turns into a fierce ray of sun that burns him, all while shooting arrows from starry eyes. She is relief and torment at once, and both are love.

The last verse completes the portrait. Like a wild gust of wind she blows through and throws his life into chaos, then leaves, only to return like a tiny bird and settle softly beside him with a gentle smile. Sung by Kasun Kalhara, composed by Tharindu Damsara to words by Lakshantha Chinthaka, it is a warm song about loving someone unpredictable, whose every mood is a new surprise, and who is, for exactly that reason, impossible to stop wondering about.
