about
Kirala Vannama
Recital of the Lapwing. This is an Imitation of the call of the bird Kirala (lapwing) in its search for food. The bird with black and red band round his neck, hops from tree to tree; the bird, it is said, hatches its eggs lying on its back so that it may catch the sky should it fall.

Lyrics of the Kaviya of Kirala Vannama
සන්න සොලෝ පෙළ - දන්න ලෙසින් උප - තින්න බලා සක ලා
ඉන්න තුරින් ඉගි - ලෙන්න තුරින් තුර - ගින්න බොජුන් සොය ලා
දන්න හඬින් තුඩ - ගින්න නැගුම් ස්වර - යෙන්න ඉසින් දැක ලා
ඔන්න මෙදැන් පව - සන්නෙ සිරින් යුතු - වන්නම මයි කිර ලා
Sanna Solo Pela - Danna Lesin Upa - thinna Bala Saka laa
Inna Thurin Igi - lenna Thurin Thura - Ginna Bojun Soya laa
Danna Handin Thuda - Ginna Negum Swara - yenna Isin Deka laa
Onna Meden Pawa - sanne Sirin Yuthu - Vannamamai Kira laa
