D.S. Senanayake was the first prime minister after independence. The legal head of state was Queen Elizabeth's governer at that time, but Senanayake effectively ran the joint.
If the question is about the first democratically elected government leader in Sri Lanka, it would be Don Stephen Senanayake. However, the first president (ceremonial role with no powers) was William Gopallawa in 1972. This replaced the governer role.
The first executive president (head of government/head of state) was Junius Richard Jayawardene in 1977.
William Gopallawa was the first non-executive president of Sri Lanka (from 22 May 1972 to 4 February 1978)
Junius Richard Jayewardene (known as J R Jayewardene) was the first executive President of Sri Lanka from 1978 until 1989
