අමා
දහර දිය ගලා ගලා
අමා
දහර දිය ගලා ගලා
තුරු
ලතා තුළින් මල් පියලි සලා
ජය
හඬින් ලොවට සිහ නද පතුරා
ලෝ
සත අතරින් ජනිත වුණා
අමා
දහර දිය ගලා ගලා
තුරු
ලතා තුළින් මල් පියලි සලා…….
සැපෙහි
කිමිදී දුකෙහි ගැලීලා
මැදුම්
පිළිවෙතින් අමා සුව ලබා…..//
දහම්
සුවඳ මල් දසතම පතුරා
සියලු
කෙලෙස් මැඩ බුදුවූවා…..//
අමා
දහර දිය ගලා ගලා
තුරු
ලතා තුළින් මල් පියලි සලා…..
ජීවිතයේ
ඇති නොනිමි අතිර බව
ලොවට
පැතිරූ කරුණාවේ අම ගුණ….//
සියළු
සතුන් වෙත දහම් රස පෙවූ
කරුණාබර
නෙත් නිවී ගියා…..//
අමා
දහර දිය ගලා ගලා
තුරු
ලතා තුළින් මල් පියලි සලා…..
