Sri Lanka at its Best
Posted on May 23rd, 2009

I hear the school bus tooting and the children are impatient to go to school,

I touch their hearts, pure with only innocence in their minds,

I feel the anxiety in parentƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s hearts, the fear of safety is the only thing in their minds,

I smell the breakfast that is ready to eat before everyone goes to work and back in one piece,

I see the tears of the families when soldiers are ready to leave.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

I hear the joy so far away and yet so powerful,

My tears are not enough to express my joy,

I wish I was with you at this glorious moment of peace.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

I am happy my country is for everyone,

I am happy for all children that will be born without a burden of a war,

I am happy for all school children who comes home without a fear of a bomb,

I am happy for all mothers and fathers, who are at peace when their children are at school,

I am happy for all grandparents, who are at peace when their children are at work,

I am happy for all soldiers that they donƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t have to fight,

I am happy for my country; now at its best, in one piece and in peace.
