Villages, children
In many Sri Lankan villages, children often create their own fun using simple things from nature—like Areca nut leaves and coconut fronds—turning them into toys and games. Their laughter and creativity show how joyful play doesn’t need anything fancy.
Sigiriya Frescoes ( Sigiri Apsaras )
An ancient Sri Lankan craftsman painted the Sigiri Apsaras, also known as the Sigiriya Frescoes
පුරාණ ශ්රී ලාංකික ශිල්පියෙකු විසින් සීගිරි අප්සරාවන් සිතුවම් කරන ලද අතර එය සීගිරි බිතුසිතුවම් ලෙසද හැඳින්වේ.
Sigiriya “කුරුටු ගී” (Kurutū gī)

| Sigiriya “කුරුටු ගී” (Kurutū gī) |
The Sigiriya Mirror Wall (Sinhala: සීගිරියේ කැටපත් පවුර, Katu Poth Pavura) is a highly polished wall at the ancient rock fortress of Sigiriya in Sri Lanka. It was built during the reign of King Kashyapa (477–495 AD).
Over the centuries (mainly between the 7th–13th centuries), visitors wrote poems, love verses, and comments on the wall.
These writings are known as the Sigiriya Graffiti.
They are among the oldest examples of Sinhala poetry and give insight into ancient people's thoughts, art, and language.
Here are a few verses from the Sigiriya “කුරුටු ගී” (Kurutū gī) — the ancient poems inscribed on the mirror wall:
“ස්වස්නනති අග්බොය්මි ලීමි
නිල් කට්රොල් මලෙකැ ඇවුණු වැට්කොළ මල සෙයි
සැන්දැගැ සිහියෙන්නෙයි මහනෙල් වන හය් රන්වන හුන්” (334)
“දකුත් නැමි සිත ගත නෙත ගත කත
ළ නොපෙරෙ ජල ගත දැකැ ම නොගත
සැබැවැ රජක් නොවී ගත තද ගල ගත
බල මග යන්නනො යති එතිය නුමුත” (51)
