සටන් බිමට නොගොසින් බියෙන් බැදී
සිටින්නෙමුද කවදත් මුලු වලට වැදී
පිටින් වදින මරැ පහරට පපුව නොදී
කටින් ජාති ආලය කිව්වාට මදී

Translation -

"Without going to the battle field
Being everyday in a corner
Without facing the deadly attacks
Not worth expressing love to the nation"

 

This is a very effective poem. Today too we see a lot of people talking about the country a lot, yet we see few works for the country.

This poem makes them a shame for themselves.
