Manike Mage Hithe Lyricsby

SatheeshanYohani

Gem of my heart, your soft glow stirs feelings inside me… igniting me
As you walk by the shore, my eyes follow your every move… remembering

You draw close to my heart
Tangled in a familiar kind of love
A vision of beauty – delicate, graceful
You’re the one who’s captured me

You draw close to my heart
Tangled in a familiar kind of love
A vision of beauty – delicate, graceful
You’re the one who’s captured me

Gem of my heart, your soft glow stirs feelings inside me… igniting me
As you walk by the shore, my eyes follow your every move… remembering

So don’t play games with me
You took my heart and then tried to hide
But love – love belongs to you
Don’t treat it like it’s just another fling

Small-town gossip girl
You’ve bewitched me with your beauty
One glance from your eyes, and I’m caught
Even my own heart won’t listen to me now

Hey girl… hey girl…
You’ve set my heart on fire
Can we get a little closer now?
I’m going crazy the way you hit me with that spark

You gave a look – I got drunk on it
Like a buzzing bee, I spread my wings
You stood at the center, surrounded by them all
But it was my heart that got stolen, my sweet bee…

You draw close to my heart
Tangled in a familiar kind of love
A vision of beauty – delicate, graceful
You’re the one who’s captured me

You draw close to my heart
Tangled in a familiar kind of love
A vision of beauty – delicate, graceful
You’re the one who’s captured me

Gem of my heart, your soft glow stirs feelings inside me… igniting me
As you walk by the shore, my eyes follow your every move… remembering

You draw close to my heart (so close)
Tangled in a familiar kind of love (wrapped tight)
A vision of beauty – delicate, graceful
You’re the one who’s captured me

You draw close to my heart (so close)
Tangled in a familiar kind of love (wrapped tight)
A vision of beauty – delicate, graceful
You’re the one who’s captured me

“Manike Mage Hithe” translates to “Gem of My Heart”, and the song is a heartfelt expression of desire, obsession, and emotional surrender. At its core, it’s about falling so deeply for someone that they occupy every corner of your mind.

The lyrics begin with gentle admiration – the singer is mesmerized by a beautiful woman who seems almost unreal, like a dream. Her presence stirs emotions that feel new yet strangely familiar, igniting a quiet fire within.

But as the song progresses, that soft desire becomes more intense. There’s frustration and vulnerability as the singer confesses how completely he’s fallen for her, even as she plays hard to get or hides her feelings. The song walks the line between playful flirtation and raw emotional exposure.

There are references to gossip, temptation, and losing control – but beneath it all is a man captivated by someone who both entrances and overwhelms him. He sees her everywhere, feels her in everything, and admits that his heart no longer belongs to him. It’s been stolen, quietly and completely.

The repetitive chorus emphasizes this emotional looping – like being stuck in a dream you don’t want to wake from. The song mixes poetic language with youthful intensity, making it both relatable and haunting.
