Kawadaka Hamuwennada Lyrics Singlish
Kawadaka hamuwennada
Oba aawe samugannada
Api aaye hamunowunaata
Hitha thaama api gaawama
Api mathaka pothe radawaa
Thabu prema kathaa kiyawaa
Oba yannada thani karalaa
Yali aadara bas dodalaa
Kawadaka hamuwennada
Me obama thanu deyama
Aadarayaki sonduruthama
Kandulakin pirunee deneetha
Oba aawe samugannadaකවදාක හමුවෙන්නද ගී පද
කවදාක හමුවෙන්නද
ඔබ ආවේ සමුගන්නද
අපි ආයේ හමුනොවුනාට
හිත තාම අපි ගාවම
අපි මතක පොතේ රදවා
තැබු ප්රේම කතා කියවා
ඔබ යන්නද තනි කරලා
යළි ආදර බස් දොඩලා
කවදාක හමුවෙන්නද
මේ ඔබම තැනු දෙයම
ආදරයකි සොඳුරුතම
කඳුලකින් පිරුණි දෙනෙත
ඔබ ආවේ සමුගන්නදKawadaka Hamuwennada Lyrics English Translation
When will we ever meet again?
did you come only to say goodbye?
even though we will not meet again,
the heart is still, always, with us
Reading the love-tales we kept
laid away in the memory-book,
will you go, leaving me alone,
speaking words of love once again?
When will we ever meet again?
This very thing that you yourself built,
is the loveliest love there is,
the eyes filled up with a tear,
did you come only to say goodbye?

Kawadaka Hamuwennada Song Meaning and Interpretation
A gentle, sorrowful song of parting, its title the ache at its heart, when will we ever meet again? The singer suspects the worst, did you come only to say goodbye?, and yet holds onto one consolation: even though we will not meet again, the heart is still, always, with us. The bond outlasts the parting.
The middle reaches for the shared past. He speaks of reading the love-tales we kept laid away in the memory-book, and asks, hurt, whether she will go, leaving me alone, even as she keeps speaking words of love once again. The tenderness of her words makes the leaving harder, not easier.
The close honours what they had even as it ends. This very thing that you yourself built is the loveliest love there is; and with the eyes filled up with a tear, he returns to the same soft, disbelieving question, did you come only to say goodbye? Sung by Shirly Waijayantha, it is a tender, wistful song about a farewell that cannot quite be believed, and a love that stays in the heart long after the meeting ends.
