Rashtrapati Premadasa
President Premadasa, President Premadasa,In the same breath you love
Not only the Sri Lankans,
But also all the citizens of the world.
Within, you are a sleepless devotion-flow.
Without, you are an endless power-planet.
Within, without, you sing the oneness-song.
You are the compassionate beckoning hand
Of progress-delight.
Victory, President Premadasa!
We all proclaim you victory, victory, victory.
Day and night, at every moment,
You are your heart's self-giving life.
Indeed, this is your sole identification-light
Here on earth.
