| Lyrics: | 1.
Mother Lanka we worship Thee!
Plenteous in prosperity, Thou,
Beauteous in grace and
love,
Laden with corn and luscious fruit
And fragrant flowers of radiant hue,
Giver of
life and all good things,
Our land of joy and victory,
Receive our grateful praise
sublime,
Lanka! we worship Thee.
2.
Thou gavest us Knowledge and Truth,
Thou art our
strength and inward faith,
Our light divine and sentient being,
Breath of life and
liberation.
Grant us, bondage free, inspiration.
Inspire us for ever.
In wisdom and
strength renewed,
Ill-will, hatred, strife all ended,
In love enfolded, a mighty
nation
Marching onward, all as one,
Lead us, Mother, to fullest freedom.
