..hima piyali..
Suwada dena neka paata
Mal pipee nathuwaata
Hima piyallath malak paalu hemanthayata
Suwada dena neka paata
Mal pipee nathuwaata
Hima piyallath malak paalu hemanthayata
Mal ladael kurulusara ayithi wassaneta
Kandulu viyaluna mathaka barayi hemantheta
Susum witharak athee mage hitata hinahenna
Sinaasara nuwan hasa dama aa wassanaya
Adath idahita geneyi sihina hemantheta
Susum witharak athee mage hitata sanahenna
Suwada dena neka paata

Hima piyallath malak paalu hemanthayata
Suwada dena neka paata
Mal pipee nathuwaata

..හිම පියලි..
සුවද දෙන නෙක පාට
මල් පිපී නැතුවාට
හිම පියැල්ලත් මලක් පාලු හේමන්තයට
සුවද දෙන නෙක පාට
මල් පිපී නැතුවාට
හිම පියැල්ලත් මලක් පාලු හේමන්තයට
මල් ලදැල් කුරුලුසර අයිති වස්සානෙට
කදුළු වියැලුනු මතක බරයි හේමන්තෙට
සුසුම් විතරක් ඇතී මගෙ හිතට හිනැහෙන්න
සිනාසර නුවන් හස දමා ආ වස්සානය
අදත් ඉදහිට ගෙනෙයි සිහින හේමන්තෙට
සුසුම් විතරක් ඇතී මගෙ හිතට සැනහෙන්න
සුවද දෙන නෙක පාට
මල් පිපී නැතුවාට
හිම පියැල්ලත් මලක් පාලු හේමන්තයට
සුවද දෙන නෙක පාට
මල් පිපී නැතුවාට
හිම පියැල්ලත් මලක් පාලු හේමන්තයටHima Piyali Lyrics English Translation
..a snowflake..
many colours that give fragrance,
though no flowers have bloomed,
even the snowflake is a lonely flower for the winter
many colours that give fragrance,
though no flowers have bloomed,
even the snowflake is a lonely flower for the winter
Flower buds and birdsong belong to the spring,
a memory heavy with dried-up tears belongs to the winter,
only sighs are left, to make my heart smile
The spring that came with smiling eyes and laughter
still, now and then, brings dreams to the winter,
only sighs are left, to comfort my heart
many colours that give fragrance,
though no flowers have bloomed,
even the snowflake is a lonely flower for the winter
many colours that give fragrance,
though no flowers have bloomed,
even the snowflake is a lonely flower for the winter

Hima Piyali Song Meaning and Interpretation
This is a delicate, melancholy song that reads the heart through the seasons. Its central image is a hima piyali, a snowflake, which the singer calls a lonely flower for the winter, a thing of many colours and even fragrance that appears when no real flowers can bloom. From the first line the snowflake stands in for the singer, beautiful but cold and alone.
The song draws a clean line between two seasons. Flower buds and birdsong, it says, belong to vassana, the spring, the time of love and life; but a memory heavy with dried-up tears belongs to hemantha, the winter. In this winter of the heart, all that is left to him are sighs, the only thing that can even make his heart smile.
And yet the spring is not entirely gone. That spring which once came with smiling eyes and laughter, he says, still, now and then, sends dreams drifting into the winter. But they change nothing in the end; only sighs remain to comfort his heart. It is a quiet, image-rich song about living in the cold season of loss while the warmth of an earlier, happier time visits only in dreams.
