‘Raja
Kapuru’ stage play. 15 year ago. True today.
Traditionally
searching for a new king, the elephant walked all over the country and
knelt down in front of a field scarecrow.
The
scarecrow had to be made king. So he was, managing the country from his castle
runde by a moat. Soon he was advised to choose a bride to regularize lineage.
This
is when agents went in search of a bride.
All
the damsels were pruning themselves up to be selected.
The song is a description of the efforts of the damsels.
It
was a very keen satire on Sri Lanka.
