A typical Sri Lankan Kandyan (Central Tea country Hill region) Sinhalese Wedding Song and Bride in all her finery. Enjoy!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoQz1KBs … re=related

The lyrics are very much in line with the famous Jewish Wedding Song, Sunrise Sunset, from Fiddler on the Roof. here the bride is singing, remembering her great times with her parents and how sad it is now to leave them for her lover and groom.
