ශ්‍රී චන්ද්‍රරත්න මානවසිංහ Sinhalese Poet Sri Chandrarathna Manawasinha

මානවසිංහ නම් ගේය පද රචකයා… “අකුරට යනවයි කියලා ටිකිරි අයිය බැදිවලමයි ඉන්නකො මං ගුරු ගෙදරට ගිහින් කියන්නම් ගිහින් කියල මේ බැද්දෙදි අල්ලල දෙන්නම්” “පඳුරු අස්සෙ කුරුල්ලන්ට ඔමරි කරනවා විතරයි සිළිදු ඉතින් දර කැඩුව ද මමත් කියන්නම් ගිහින් කියල පොඩි නැන්දට අල්ලල දෙන්නම්”
