The song written in the sky with scattered stars to my loneliness.
I am not the only one who is in solitude.
On this endless voyage thousands of souls are waiting at the shore
And who is longing to sail?
Melody dances with the ripples monotonously.
This everlasting song denotes the entire theme of life.
My beloved in this solitary night sings this melancholy song in a different pitch.



To Sunil.Edirisinghe who sung this song (my lyrics) in my mother tongue, broadcast on the radio in eighties. (This was written on a ship's deck at night while my vessel was in anchorage in the port of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia)
