I have learnt things from Bhathiya Jayakody,the legendary figure bns.
I have seen him in school uniform with the golden Ananda Crest Badge,
then I have seen him in a scout uniform,I have seen him playing the piano
in the western music room,and many more times as an old anandian.
All this time I just had one word to describe him,
“inspirational”.
Once when I was attending the Leadership Training Camp in Year 2001,to become a Prefect of Ananda College,he was there for a group discussion as an old prefect.I was lucky enough to be a member of his group and he had so many things to say to us.
I just felt like sharing some of the things he has told us.

you’re the one that has done the…

| the poem that I wrote for the girl who smiled at me over the bun-toaster |
you were the shiny moonlight that crawled through the darkness, at a time, that I didn't wish for your heart.... please don't diminish from my heart's sky, to a distance, where I won't be able to reach. even the naughty wind used to accompany your fragrance. don't stop this life's journey, somewhere inbetween... yet,smile for me. please don't hide your smiles from me. please don't set my heart on fire. since the day I saw you, I just can't help feeling, that "you belong with me".

ආදරණීය උත්පලා,
සඳඑලිය නැතිවුවද,
මද අඳුර අද්දරින්,
කුමුදුවී සුපිපෙන්න.
Happy Valentines Day!

why?
like a star to the pitch black night sky,
like a tree to the endless desert,
why did you decide to stay with me,
in this long and tiresome life of mine?
[what I felt about you,when I was 18]
wind that captures the scent of early morning blossams,
is you.
the lyrics of the harmonious song that birds sing,
is your smile.
blue moon, that is blessed with dew drops
will rise up in the night sky and diminish the darkness.
the lotus that blossoms in the lake of blue water,
will remind me of your cheeks.
early morning sunshine that comes across the window
refreshes the heart,
your smile is the oasis that fuels courage to me to go further.
= seperation =
it’s a huge torch of fire,
that erupted breaking the shackles.
the pain came suddenly and
how am I suppose to endure the pain?
I was there like the shadow always.
how can I hide the tears in my eyes and pretend?
love that grew slowly towards my beloved,
wished to cherish it till the end of “sansaar”.
a star fell down,denoting that we’ll be seperated.
may no harm come to you from beasts in the jungle.
may flowers bring you fragrance and wildfruits keep you out of hunger.
may the people who try to harm you,be sent to hell.
may you live happily in my heart’s border.
= silence =
I saw you in the town centre,
nearby the pond,
and somehow managed to look at you.
Although we were dumbfound,
there were thousands of words stuck inside us.
since the tress has got 1000 eyes,
since the wind has 1000 sharp ears,
since you will never ever be mine,
I thought that the silence was better,
since a dialogue would have deepened the pain.
whats the use of the ocean,
where I can’t drink a handful of water?
whats the use of a boat,
where I cant ride in the water?
whats the use of eyes,
where I can’t see what I desire,
whats the use of a rose,
where I can’t pull me near and smell the fragrance?
=”destined” =
boy:
I’ll be near the the gate with all my wits at it’s best,
I’ll peak at you hiding behind the flower petels,
I’ll watch for for your mum,
…all,this if you love me and trust me.
gurl:
does the fully blossomed lotus
that has come out of the lake,
belong to you?
the half blinked eyes,
due to the slowly spreded moonlight,
belonged to me.
gurl:
did the image of my boyfriend
drown somewhere inside my mind?
my heart is filled with love for him,
but…
how did you manage to get in?

My life is brilliant
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I’m sure.
She smiled at me on a 154.
[she is with another man.]
But I won’t lose no sleep on that,
‘Cause I had got a plan.
You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As my bus passed by.
She could see from my face that I was,
F***king high,
And I don’t think that
I’ll see her again,
But we shared a moment that
will last till the end.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don’t know what to do,
cause
I will never be with you.
There must be an angel with
a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I
should be with you.
But it’s time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
= wht I myt hv to sing on ur wedding day =
the sun diminishes upon the blue horizon,
within the silky mist limits.
this summer is going to end and it’ll never comeback once again.
the love erupts as lava flow,burning deep down the mountain.
we met with a blink of an eye and had to depart with a sigh.
your love was planted in his heart as the morning misty dew with the bunch of hopes.
Well here I am,weeping in the dark all alone,without seen by anybody else,
with the memories of the lovely past.
I’m watering my ears with smiley tears,
with the dream I saw in the dark where my eyes were closed.
Please hide it in the distant clouds.
may you leave with joy at heart with my heart filled blessings!
= the ringtone =
your missed calls used to remind me,
that there’s someone out there who understands me,cares about me and remembers me!
the ringtone had the sound of the sea wave and said
“the mountain is so much excited since it is covered by the mist,
just like us they too are smiling and getting close to each other”
Now I just prefer to leave the phone in ‘silent mode’.
[my Nokia 6670 stopped working,just cudn’t throw it away dueto the heavy load of memory it carries]
= the verse I couldn’t write =
the sight of your eyes enchant me,
just like the essence of the moonlight.
sighs are full of sweet scent,
and the eyes are cold as the mountain dew.
its like the verse that I couldn’t write
I wonder how am I gonna praise you.
its just the romance that is pouring through.
my lyf is beautiful that is graced by your sighs,
the wind has its secret.
I just don’t know how to admire your beauty.
= sithuwili =
“හදුනන්නෙදෝ ඔබ මාගේ සෙනේ
ඉවසන්නෙදෝ ඔබ ඊයේ වගේ
හදවත කොනේ මා කදුලක් තියෙනවා
කිසිදාක නොසිතූ
නොපැතූ ලෙසේ ….”
– summer 2008
^^^^^^^^
whats the use of hope for a single heart?
where does the falling of tears end?
Love is a dream.
The dark endless dark tunnel doesnt even have the tinniest starlight.
The sun will never shine again.
Its the dream and the far away moon.
Dreams flow across the sky and the ocean cries out with memories.
So,its time for me to leave you,
I’ll leave from your heart and its all his now.
Eventhough I’ll be lonely for the rest of ma lyf,
Eventhough I’m a looser in this game of love,
you will always will be the moon.
On a dark moonless night
a new star will tell me the way,
may be I’ll try to smile again.
I’ll come to you before I die,
I’ll smile at least one again,
Will you drop a single teardrop and cleanse me?
I knew that you didnt belong to me.
do you hear the songs
that I sing,
from the edge of the mountain,
bewitched by the memories.
my little mermaid,
please look down from the peak.
untill the moon had vanished upon the valley and the mountain peaks
in the western sky,
I was not shaken by the secret you told me.
I knew that you didnt belong to me.
when the sun rised among the lake,river and the sea,
in the eastren sky,
I was not shaken by your glimmering eyes
I knew that you didnt belong to me.

ජීවිතය මුලසිට වැරදුනු වියමනකි.
= the day I die =
under the same sun and moon
where you and I met in the past,
wherever you may be…
please stay beside me
on the day I die.
the reaSon
I just don’t know the reason why flowers bloom in tress.
I just don’t know why flowers bloom at heart.
I just don’t know why my heart fell for you.
I’m still searching the reason why.
the desert sand will love the blazing sun by nature,
it will love the sprinkles by heart.
The world doesn’t realize my love which is immense,
which can not be stopped.
stars are destined to love the moon,
but why can’t there be a star that loves the sun?
the love of mine which you don’t feel is same as that,
and…you’ll be dazzled.
moonlight queen
you travelled so far,
jus lyk the moonlight queen
the girl who was silent with me near the lakeside,
is now in the parade leaving me alone
you shined in the night lyk the dim moonlight,
here I am in the village along,
you left from the mountain peak.
The flower is drifting away leaving the bee behind.
the time flows and the fower is now a princess.
dear heart,don’t repent anymore.Its the destiny.
I saw the moonlight figure in a dream from nowhere.
= lake of dreams =
*** to the girl
whom I luvd mst
all ma lyf
[ this is all I hv lft wit me ]
The lake of dreams,
blooms up flowers and releases ’em with elegance.
The scent flows slowly and stays near ma door.
When I fell the scent of love which you offered me ,
I still think of you hugging you like the wind.
When the stars open their eyes ,
on a dark midnight,
ma mind travels a great distance and blooms dreamflowers.
When I try to open ma eyes you come near to me,
in a single moment,
and opens up all ma butterfly memories.
I’ll come near to the trees
where the flowers are blended with the morning dew
and will close ma eyes,
will you be there?
just to feel the sweet fragrance of you
for another time,
ma dear swan,
will you come down the path to walk with me?
= evidence =
just ask the maple tress
of harrow on the hill.
how often did varuna cry
being left alone without you?
= pooja =
my loving angel…
As the rainbows of the eastren skly,
you will be in my memory,
in secret,
the path will soon end,
where you held my heart,
bearing my sorrow.
I intend to stop near the shore of tears,
please go on till you find the port of smiles.
the summer is still enchanting,
although the dreams have burnt down.
I intend to stop near the shore of tears,
please go on till you find the port of smiles.
cycle of lyf
Lyf’s a cycle.
everything comes to a certain point after a particular time phrase.
everything rotates among the center point.
again it’s the same old center point,
but still ignites the fire!
this time none can save me,
after all the sadness-filled cycles and distance,
here I am still luving the girl near the waterfall!
= crowded street =
don’t be the blossom of the summer,
don’t fade away in the autumn,
stay the same forever.
If you become a fliower to the tree with empty branches,
you’ll be mine forever.
I never felt strong like this all my life.
you came from the heaven and was with me all the winter.
I met her in the crowded street,
even now she walks with me slowly.
I couldn’t change my heart and it searches for you.
I walk along searching the love of my life,
I feel I’ll meet her someday,
in thi lonely street of dreams and loneliness.
Be a blossom of the winter season.,
with happy smiles and tears,
don’t fade away in the summer.
If so you’ll be mine forever.
