Ma Igili Giya Lyrics
Maa hade pituwak puraa
Mathakayan oba ek kalaa
Sundara ma thawa than soyaa
Maa igilee giyaa, maa igilee
Oba maa dilenaa sandaliye
Oba maa haa dan ath patalaa aadaren
Aadare mata kiyaa dee
Sinaawan mage muwa radee
Maa da dan tharuwak wage
Igilee gihin thawa than soyayi
Oba maa dilenaa sandaliye
Oba maa haa dan ath patalaa aadarenමා ඉගිලී ගියා ගී පද
මා හදේ පිටුවක් පුරා
මතකයන් ඔබ එක් කලා
සුන්දර ම තව තැන් සොයා
මා ඉගිලී ගියා, මා ඉගිලී
ඔබ මා දිලෙනා සඳලියේ
ඔබ මා හා දැන් අත් පටලා ආදරෙන්
ආදරෙ මට කියා දී
සිනාවන් මගෙ මුව රැඳී
මා ද දැන් තරුවක් වගේ
ඉගිලී ගිහින් තව තැන් සොයයි
ඔබ මා දිලෙනා සඳලියේ
ඔබ මා හා දැන් අත් පටලා ආදරෙන්Ma Igili Giya Lyrics English Translation
Across a page of my heart,
you added your memories,
and, seeking ever more beautiful places,
I flew away, I flew
You are my shining balcony of the moon,
now you entwine your hands with mine, in love
Teaching me love,
smiles resting on my lips,
now I too am like a star,
flying off, seeking new places
You are my shining balcony of the moon,
now you entwine your hands with mine, in love

Ma Igili Giya Song Meaning and Interpretation
A light, happy love song about being lifted by love into flight. The beloved has added her memories across a page of the singer’s heart, and, buoyed by them, seeking ever more beautiful places, I flew away, I flew. Love here is not weight but wings, it sets him soaring toward something lovelier.
The refrain names her in a single glowing image: you are my shining balcony of the moon (sandaliye), a bright, high, moonlit place he can climb to, and now you entwine your hands with mine, in love. After the solo flight, there is togetherness, hand in hand.
The close completes the transformation. Having been taught love, smiles resting on my lips, he says now I too am like a star, flying off, seeking new places. Her love has turned him luminous, a star of his own, still exploring but no longer alone. Sung by Tharindu Damsara, composed by Kavin Harshana, it is a bright, uplifting love song about how being loved makes you take flight, and shine.
