When Time Stood Still

Dedicated to millions who lost their lives including the heroic healthcare workers the world over

Lyrics : Rasieka Jayatunga

Vocals, video, images and music : Mahendra Gonsalkoralae

Covid-19 Lock down poetry

Locked In

Locked in I ponder
Of fleeting musings
Of the uncertainty
Of life and living!

Of data sets and models
Of probability and predictability
Updates and communiques
Of regimes
Authoritarian and authoritative

In whose judgement
Do I place my trust?
Devoid of my agency
Locked out
I ponder!

In our quest for efficiency
Probability and predictability
Did you not factor uncertainty
Of scarce resources
Of human instincts
To quell a tide unbeknown

Lofty and mighty
We did stand
At the pinnacle
Of our race
Plundering
Scarce resources
Invading
People and places
To build havens
Of our own !

Invisible and insidious
In its vile grip
It did expose
Our frailty
Our disunity
Of a life too busy
To stop to tinker

Locked in
It stills my mind
Like muddied water
I let it stand
To be the calm eye
Of this storm
For this too
Shall pass !

Roshan Aswer

Locked Out

Locked out
I stare within
At the calm waters
That some are squandering

Locked out
They send me to the front
The oldest of them standing
Without even a saniwipe

Locked out
May I come inside?
What I would give
To be locked in
But I am locked out.

Roshan Perera

Spring 2020

It is a spring full of sorrow
But not let your souls follow
Keep your thoughts glitteringly glow
and let’s pray for those in sorrow

It is a spring full of sorrow
Yet daffodils bloom in bright yellow
With snow drops as white as snow
and let’s pray for those in sorrow

It is a spring full of sorrow
But not let your souls follow
Keep your thoughts in bright sunny glow
and let’s pray for those in sorrow

It is a spring full of sorrow
Yet cherry blossoms bloom in full flow
with tulips in crimson glow
and let’s pray for those in sorrow

It is a spring full of sorrow
But not let your souls follow
Keep your thoughts as cheerful as a sparrow
and let’s pray for those in sorrow

Tudor De Silva

A Song for Mother Kanaka

Winter Warmth

Embrace my friends
       The warmth  of winter
       As the days get shorter 
       And the chill gets colder
Embrace  the winter
      As the evenings get darker
      And the winds get stronger
      Blowing the trees naked and slender
Embrace my friends
      The joy of winter
      As the meadows glitter
      And the pastures  turn whiter 
Embrace  the winter
      With hearts of vim and vigor
      Not let your souls wither 
      In this season of gloom and bitter

සීතල සමයත් ලඟ ලඟ එනවා

ලස්සන ගිම්හානය පසුවෙනවා 
                         සීතල සමයත්  ලග ලග.     එනවා 
සන්දා කාලය   කලින් ලබනවා.  , 
                         සීත සුලන් දස අතින්          හමනවා 

තන අග පිනිකැට සුදට පිපෙනවා,
                        අහස වසා කලු සේල          බදිනවා
ම්දුම් පටලින්  පොලව වසනවා, 
                       සිතල කාලය  පිවිස.            තියෙනවා

උතුරු දෙසින් තද සුලන් හමනවා, 
                      පාට පාට කොල සුලගෙ.        නටනවා,
ගස්වල අතු නිර්වතින් හඩනවා
                      සුන්දර සීතල සමය.            ලබනවා

පාර පුරා කලු හිම දිලිසෙනවා, 
                     ලෝගු දමාගත්  මිනිසුන්          යනවා 
වෙහි ලිහිණියො උඩ අහසෙ නටනවා, 
                     සිතල  කාලය පිවිස              තියනවා

නෝනෙක් සමගින් බල්ලෙක් යනවා, 
                  රස්නෙට ග්ව්මක් ඌත්           අන්දිනවා
සිනා සෙන්න මිතුරනි මෙය බලලා  
                       සීතල කාලයෙ රසය වින්ද       විදා
