Nim Him Sewwa (Sinhala; Sinhalese: නිම් හිම් සෙව්වා) is a 2020 song by Bathiya and Santhush, Kasun Kalhara, Sashika Nisansala, and Umaria Sinhawansa. The song is a collaboration between the five musical arists, made as a promotion for The Voice Sri Lanka, on which the five artists are the judge panel.[1] [2] It is a cover of Pandit W.D. Amaradeva's 1978 hit song of the same name.[3]
This version fuses the Sinhalese and English versions of the song,[4] written by Nimal Mendis for the 1978 Sri Lankan movie Seetha Devi, an adaptation of the Ramayana.[5] [6]
The song was first released on YouTube and sits at 1.09 million views as of October 2023.[7] Since then, Umaria has commonly performed the song at her concerts.[8]
