සීයට මුහුද
The Sea for Seeya
Seeyata Muhuda
A daughter abroad books her parents a whole month by the sea. Seeya sits in a deckchair with his feet in the waves, laughing, and a week later the grandchildren run up the sand shouting his name.
Lyrics
Chorus
සීයා මුහුද ළඟ, මුණුබුරෝ ආවා!Seeya muhuda langa, munuburo aawa!Seeya's by the sea, and the grandkids came!
මාසයක්ම මුහුදේ, ආච්චිත් එක්කමMasayakma muhude, achchith ekkamaA whole month by the sea, with Achchi too
පුටුවේ සීයා, කකුල් දෙක රැල්ලේPutuwe seeya, kakul deka ralleSeeya in the chair, both feet in the waves
පොඩි උන් වැල්ලේ දුවනවා, "සීයේ!" කියලාPodi un walle duwanawa, "Seeye!" kiyalaThe little ones run up the sand shouting "Seeya!"
සීයට මුහුද, සීයට මුහුදSeeyata muhuda, seeyata muhudaThe sea for Seeya, the sea for Seeya
අපි ඔක්කොම මුහුදේ, සීයත් එක්කම!Api okkoma muhude, seeyath ekkama!All of us by the sea, Seeya with us!

මම බුක් කළා පිටරට ඉඳන්, මුහුද ළඟ මාසයක්මMama book kala pitarata indan, muhuda langa masayakmaI booked it from abroad, a whole month by the sea

The book behind the songs
Every song here is sung from inside one moment: the day someone in Sri Lanka has already done one of the book's 500 ideas, and the family is celebrating.
This song is a story about one idea from the book Why Not Sri Lanka. It promises nothing. No real person or business is shown in it. The book's ideas belong to whoever builds them. Music and vocals created with Suno from original lyrics written for this channel. The pictures in the songs are made with AI too.
