Srimath Anagarika Dharmapala

Noble Son of Lanka
Compiled by:
Srima Warusawithana

In letters of gold your name is etched

Anagarika Dharmapala - revered for service nobly done
A true Bodhisatva ideal a life of sacrifice, courage and endeavor,
A voice like thunder, resonating a deep love for Sri Lanka,
Fearlessly pointing the way to live, a virtuous life,
Devoid of false values, not imitating alien culture,
Yet extracting the good in others customs, from lands across the seas,
Born to affluence, an easy life;David - a name that meant nothing to him,
He changed to Dharmapala a devotee of the Buddhas gentle teachings,
Forsaking a life of luxury, wealth and glory in worldly terms,
Went further on to a homeless simple life denoted Anagarika
And in later years this noble son of Lanka donned the saffron robes
To become Sri Devamitta Dhammapala Thera.
His stentorian voice echoed and re-echoed in Lanka,
In neighboring India, and also far across the globe,
Swiftly carrying on the powerful message of the Dhamma,
The Buddhist way of life, always mingled with compassion,
Though his words were strong and fiery;
To the corners of Jambudipa the land of the Buddhas birth,
To preserve and hold sacred the footprints,
The paths where the Buddha tirelessly trod,
Through forty five long years;
So every faithful that visits here shall behold the splendor in adoration,
And venerate the sacred places with gladsome hearts.
For this, Sri Lanka remains ever grateful,
To the honoured name of Lankas noble son
Srimath Anagarika Dharmapala.
