Netha Gatuni Adaren Lyrics by Shirly Waijayantha

Eyes met, in love,
in a love bound to the heart,
that is how I feel you are near,
near, just like the day I first saw you

It was you who taught me
that unfamiliar love,
eyes meeting, the heart stirred,
you go on searching,
in the many-coloured rainbow sky,
far and near, you ask after me

Eyes met, in love

If spring is anyone, it is you,
my heart is there beside you,
flying, fluttering your wings, you go on searching,
in the white, soft comfort of love,
closer and closer, you ask after me

Eyes met, in love

A sweet, warm love song that begins with a single glance. Eyes met, in love, and from that meeting grew a love bound to the heart; and now, the singer says, that is how I feel you are near, near, just like the day I first saw you. The first look is what the whole feeling keeps returning to.

The middle is gratitude and mutual longing. It was you who taught me that unfamiliar love, a love he had never known; and now, eyes meeting and heart stirred, you go on searching for him, in the many-coloured rainbow sky, asking after him far and near. The searching runs both ways.

The close blooms into spring. If spring is anyone, it is you, he says, and my heart is there beside you; and still she is flying, fluttering her wings, searching, drawing closer and closer in the white, soft comfort of love. Sung by Shirly Waijayantha, it is a tender, hopeful love song about a love born in a glance, taught by the beloved, and two hearts endlessly seeking each other across a rainbow sky.
