Olu Pipeela (Original Version) ඕලු පිපීලා (මුල් ගීතය) - Sunil Santha - Sinhala

[@gemunuwira]

A golden voice that will ring in our years for generations to come. Thank you!

[@JanakaSenarathna]

I remember reading this in year 8 Sinhalese text book (years back..)..and then later wondering what happened to the last part that was dropped from it...but, I think the last part adds a sense of mischief which makes the song more lively and real...thanks for uploading the original.

මගේ මාමා කෙනෙක් දෙවන ලෝක යුද්ධය කාළයේ British army එකේ සේවය කළා. එයා නිතරම කිව්වේ සුනිල් සාන්ත ශූරීන්ගේ සිංදුයි. මට මගේ මාමා මතක්වෙන සෑම විටකම සුනි්ල් ශාන්ත සූරීන්ගේ සිංදුත් මතක් වෙනවා. එවැනි ලයාන්විත ගීත දැන්නම් අහන්න ලැබෙන්නේ ඉතා අඩුවෙන්෴

[@thilnisha]

Really nice! wonderful!! I don't know if my memory is deficient, but when we read it on grade 8 Sinhalese textbook there was no latter part missing.

[@gayandream]

Oh its a very low tempoone. Tnx Vidura for uploading such a valuable song.

[@shenon622]

great work, keep it up guys

[@Dr196903]

thishanc, thanks for your comments. I thought SLBC did a compilation on his songs in a cassette sometime ago, not sure whether they still do. regards, Vidhura

[@gemunuwira]

This brings our memories to 60 years back.

[@Dr196903]

@gayandream This version is not heard on radio often as the subsequent version was popular and little less too. Thanks for your comment Gayan.

[@ca0520]

My great respects for these legends!!!!!!!!!

[@lasanthabasnayaka7740]

very nice old song

[@Dr196903]

Aruna, This is indeed recorded of the vinyl disc from the SLBC long time ago then copied to a tape (spool) by my self, uploaded with some pictures. This is the first version which was concised later on with a higher tempo like you said. Its believed that this was recorded in 1940s according to Dr. Tissa Abeysekara who has some input in his book title 'Ayale giya sithaka satahan'. Worth reading if you get hands on in which he mentions 'sinhala sangeethaye punarudaya' etc. Regards Vidhura

iwas rimmember my school priyad sir ur the king of sing song!

[@Dr196903]

Aruna, I don't know whether you like the song 'Monawada amme akuru Jathiyak mal pethiwala kaudo liyala' song. It has two old versions too in which the slower tempo was recorded first and sung by Priscilla Opatha and Kingsley Jayasekara subsequent higher tempo which was broadcast over the 'Sinhala palamuweni sewaya' in the 1970s and 80s. Thanks for the Wikipedia info, I will have a look at it. regards Vidhura

[@Dr196903]

Tamilonthestreet, Thanks for your comment. I think people have uploaded that song in youtube. Yes, its a very nice song. regards Vidhura

[@Dr196903]

@Tamilonthestreet Yes It is. The later version has dropped the last part of the original song. Good observation.

[@Dr196903]

thanks for your appreciation. regards Vidhura
