Welapena Tharu As Lyrics Singlish
Walapena tharu as diha
Hemin horahin bala bala
Noduthuwa lesa bima balaagena
Maawa pahu kale ayi oya
Pinthoore wage sundara nura
Hagumana ekineka awuluwa
Saanukampitha mage hadawatha hudekala
Kale ayi oya....
Sansaare pura wathsunu hela
Pathumana hitha hankithi kawa
Kodukaara mage heenaya aeharawa
Giye kohedo oya....
Walapena tharu as diha
Hemin horahin bala bala
Noduthuwa lesa bima bala giye
Kawada premaya pawasayido kiya
Walapena tharu as walata
Aadaraneeya hagumak dunne oya
Kisimada duk nodenawa kiya
Poronduwak wemi maa sada...වැලපෙනා තරු ඇස් ගී පද
වැලපෙනා තරු ඇස් දිහා
හෙමින් හොරැහින් බල බලා
නොදුටුවා ලෙස බිම බලාගෙන
මාව පහු කලේ ඇයි ඔයා
පින්තූරෙ වගේ සුන්දර නුරා
හැගුමන් එකිනෙක අවුලුවා
සානුකම්පිත මගේ හදවත හුදෙකලා
කලේ ඇයි ඔයා....
සන්සාරේ පුරා වත්සුනු හෙලා
පැතුමන් හිත හංකිති කවා
කෝඩුකාර මගේ හීනය ඇහැරවා
ගියේ කොහේදෝ ඔයා....
වැලපෙනා තරු ඇස් දිහා
හෙමින් හොරැහින් බල බලා
නොදුටුවා ලෙස බිම බලා ගියේ
කවදා ප්‍රේමය පවසයිදෝ කියා
වැලපෙනා තරු ඇස් වලට
ආදරණීය හැගුමක් දුන්නේ ඔයා
කිසිමදා දුක් නොදෙනවා කියා
පොරොන්දුවක් වෙමි මා සදා...Welapena Tharu As Lyrics English Translation
Looking softly, in secret,
at the weeping star-eyes,
then, as if you hadn’t seen, staring at the ground,
why did you pass me by?
A beauty desirable as a picture,
kindling feelings one by one,
why did you leave my compassionate heart
all alone?
Spilling collyrium across saṃsāra,
tickling the heart with wishes,
you woke my mischievous dream
and went, where, oh where?
Looking softly, in secret,
at the weeping star-eyes,
you went, staring at the ground as if you hadn’t seen,
wondering when, oh when, love will speak
To these weeping star-eyes,
you gave a loving feeling,
never, I promise, to give you sorrow,
I vow it forever…

Welapena Tharu As Song Meaning and Interpretation
This is a tender song about a shy, almost-missed love, told through eyes. Its title phrase, welapena tharu as, weeping star-eyes, returns again and again. The singer catches her stealing soft, secret glances at him, and then, as if she had never seen him at all, dropping her gaze to the ground and passing him by. That small, aching moment of nearly connecting is the whole song.
He describes her beauty and his bewilderment together. She is lovely as a painting, and she kindles his feelings one by one, so he cannot understand why she left his tender, compassionate heart so alone. She spilled beauty across saṃsāra, he says, tickled his heart with wishes, and woke his playful dream, only to slip away, where, oh where, did you go?
The ending turns the hurt into a quiet vow. To those same weeping star-eyes she once gave a loving feeling, and now he waits, wondering when love will finally speak out loud. He closes with a promise made for good: never, ever, will I give you sorrow. It is a gentle, hopeful love song about two shy people circling a feeling neither has quite dared to say.
