Take me to the shore


At dawn, Thalaiyadi in Vadamarachchi East, Jaffna District.

Wake up Thalaiyadi....
Make it no bore
Take me to the shore
Bake in sun to sore
Shake the wind to tore
Soak in to cool more
Nuke our hatred more
Love thou
Humanity Ashore

Brings kindness alight


At dawn, Thalaiyadi in Vadamarachchi East, Jaffna District.

The moon of delight
Well through the night
Shining very bright
Now out of sight
Stay here tight
Darkness's might
Sunshine shall fight
Sparkling so bright
On seaside heights
Gloom takes a flight
Brings kindness alight
Love thou
Humanity Ashore

"Sunshine on the water looks so lovely"


Sunrise in Thalaiyadi in Vadamarachchi East, Jaffna District.

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a day that I could give you
I’d give to you a day just like today
If I had a song that I could sing for you
I’d sing a song to make you feel this way

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a tale that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile
If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I'd make a wish for sunshine all the while

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high
Sunshine almost all the time makes me high
Sunshine almost always
