Ma Balavath Karana Lyrics Singlish
Maa balawath karanaa samidaanan thula
Siyalla kala haki we
Siyalla kala haki we...
Natha maa sithe sakayak biyak
Samido balawathaano...
Rakaganna maa samide
Gewenaa sama mohothe...
Pisadaa kandulu sanasaa apawa
Mudawaa sama nupuren...
Samidaa obayi nibade
Thuthi we prashansaa we...
Gini dal hade susuman sithe
Niwanaa samidu oba we...
Ida denna mata samide
Radawenna oba surathe...
Dilidun athara dilidek wilasa
Wadiye obayi samide...
Kalwaari kandu mudune
Galaweema dun rajide...මා බලවත් කරනා ගී පද
මා බලවත් කරනා සමිඳාණන් තුල
සියල්ල කළ හැකි වේ
සියල්ල කළ හැකි වේ...
නැත මා සිතේ සැකයක් බියක්
සමි‍ඳෝ බලවතාණෝ...
රැකගන්න මා සමි‍ඳේ
ගෙ‍වෙනා සෑම මොහොතේ...
පිසදා කඳුළු සනසා අපව
මුදවා සෑම නපුරෙන්...
සමිඳා ඔබයි නිබ‍ඳේ
තුති වේ ප්‍රශංසා වේ...
ගිනි දැල් හදේ සුසුමන් සිතේ
නිවනා සමිඳු ඔබ වේ...
ඉඩ දෙන්න මට සමි‍ඳේ
රැඳවෙන්න ඔබ සුරතේ...
දිළිඳුන් අතර දිළි‍ඳෙක් විලස
වැඩියේ ඔබයි සමි‍ඳේ...
කල්වාරි කඳු මුදුනේ
ගැලවීම දුන් රජීඳේ...Ma Balavath Karana Lyrics English Translation
In the Lord who makes me strong,
all things can be done
all things can be done…
There is no doubt, no fear in my heart,
for you are the mighty one, my Lord…
keep me safe, my Lord,
in every passing moment…
Wiping away our tears, comforting us,
setting us free from every evil…
you are constant, my Lord,
thanks be to you, praise be to you…
The flames of fire in the heart, the sighs in the soul,
it is you who quenches them, my Lord…
give me room, my Lord,
to remain within your hand…
As a poor one among the poor,
it was you who came, my Lord…
on the summit of Calvary,
the King who gave us salvation…

Ma Balavath Karana Song Meaning and Interpretation
This is a hymn of confident trust, built on one of the best-loved promises in the New Testament, where the apostle Paul writes, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” The song makes it its opening declaration: “in the Lord who makes me strong, all things can be done.” Notice the careful humility of it, the strength is not the singer’s own; it is found “in the Lord.” That is why he can add, without arrogance, “there is no doubt, no fear in my heart, for you are the mighty one.”
From that confidence flows a series of quiet requests and thanks. “Keep me safe, my Lord, in every passing moment”; and the tender picture of God “wiping away our tears, comforting us, setting us free from every evil.” When “the flames of fire in the heart, the sighs in the soul” threaten to overwhelm, “it is you who quenches them.” The prayer at the centre is simply for nearness, “give me room to remain within your hand,” to stay held.
The final verse grounds all this strength in the humility of Christ himself. “As a poor one among the poor, it was you who came,” a reminder that the mighty Lord entered the world in poverty, alongside the lowly. And it ends at the cross, “on the summit of Calvary, the King who gave us salvation.” What the listener is left with is a settled, fearless faith, the assurance that a person joined to a God who came in poverty and saved from the cross can face every moment unafraid, able to do all things, not by their own power, but by his.
