Tilling land is the greatest of labor-without it we are no more
Youth it was that tilled with pride in days of yore
Why then on this isle youth drifted to Urban from Rural
With collar white behind a desk-tie-tightened to throat-so brutal
Compared to breezy dress he wore on the Rural Till
Why all this? To earn the epithet-Mahattaya and enjoy the Colomba Kiri
So drifted they blindly-eyes opened-to see Colombata Kiri apata Kekiri
Kiri was-theatre-dance-gym-seminar-
Do all this in style-turning Kekiri to Kiri-
Lo and Behold-You will see the reverse sweep back to the country
With Modernization replacing the Harnessed Bull and Mechanized Tool

Commercialize Network for farmer in boots-storage-transport-
Youth fell a prey on transferring management from Rajakariya to a hotchpotch of a sort
Society’s turn to rectify in just awhile so we can heave a sigh to see no more of Aragalaya wrath
