Obata Senehasaki Lyrics Singlish
Obata senehasaki
Bandunu premayaki
Hade mawi mawi makee yannathi
Hanguma premayaki
Obata senehasaki
Nethu angin neth sarawilaa
Sinaasee samugath edaa
Aadare hangumak daraa
Hade sagawee oba sadaa
Obata senehasaki
Paayanaa sanda ahasemayi
Mage sanda oba maa lagayi
Aadare unusuma obayi
Ethi ethi siyolanga dawayi
Obata senehasakiඔබට සෙනෙහසකි ගී පද
ඔබට සෙනෙහසකි
බැඳුණු ප්රේමයකි
හදේ මැවි මැවි මැකී යන්නැති
හැඟුම ප්රේමයකි
ඔබට සෙනෙහසකි
නෙතු අඟින් නෙත් සරවිලා
සිනාසී සමුගත් එදා
ආදරේ හැඟුමක් දරා
හදේ සැඟවී ඔබ සදා
ඔබට සෙනෙහසකි
පායනා සඳ අහසෙමයි
මගේ සඳ ඔබ මා ලගයි
ආදරේ උණුසුම ඔබයි
එති එති සියොලඟ දවයි
ඔබට සෙනෙහසකිObata Senehasaki Lyrics English Translation
It is affection for you
a love that has bound me
a feeling formed again and again in the heart
that will not fade, it is love
It is affection for you
Eyes grazing eyes from the corner
the day you smiled and took your leave
carrying a feeling of love
you have hidden in my heart forever
It is affection for you
The moon shines up in the sky
but my moon, you, are here beside me
you are the warmth of love
coming again and again, it sets my whole body aglow
It is affection for you

Obata Senehasaki Song Meaning and Interpretation
This is a quiet, settled love, the kind that has grown into a permanent part of the person carrying it. The singer names it plainly, “it is affection for you, a love that has bound me,” and describes the feeling as one that forms in the heart “again and again” and simply will not fade. There is no drama here, just the steady certainty of someone who knows exactly what they feel and why.
The middle verse holds the tender little moment the whole love seems to rest on: eyes meeting sideways, a shy glance from the corner, and then the day she “smiled and took her leave.” That single smile at parting was enough. Carrying the feeling of love it left behind, he says, “you have hidden in my heart forever,” as though she quietly moved in and never left.
The last verse reaches for the oldest Sinhala image of the beloved, the moon, and gives it a lovely twist. Yes, the moon shines far away in the sky, but “my moon” is here, right beside him. She is the warmth of his love, and that warmth keeps returning, “again and again,” until it sets his whole body aglow. What the listener is left with is a gentle, grateful devotion, a love that asks for nothing dramatic and simply glows, steady and close, like having your own private moon within reach.
