Funday Times - A Poem for the week

One
By Ayodhya Perera (Grade 9), Bishop's College

Rejoice, O Mother Lanka,
You do not need to fear…
'Peace', 'Unity' and 'Freedom'
Your noble sons are here.

Smile again Mother Lanka,
The sun is shining again…
The lion of bravery fought for our rights,
And has washed our pain away.

Celebrate this moment Mother Lanka,
The beginning of a new era,
Revenge and hatred have folded away,
A new tomorrow is here to stay.

Rejoice, dear Mother Lanka,
Your people applaud with elation,
The flag of Sri Lanka flying high in the sky,
One land, one country,
one nation.
