A devotional, Heliolatry (a song to worship sungod); also called "An Ode to sungod!". Heliolatry is the most ancient form of ritualistic worship.
Millions around the world venerate and worship the sun facing towards the East at the very first glimpse of its rays shining through over the horizon in bright orange-red-yellow colors, shades, and tints bringing and spreading heat and other essentials. The first daily sighting event heralds the beginning of yet another new day. It is the most exciting and hopeful sign and sight to behold and keep in mind the rest of the day. The sun stays still, but majestically and trimphantly of course!. The earth orbits around the sun; simltaneously revolving on its on axis; systematically opening a window to the sun to usher in the day and at the end of the day masks it to bring in dark night-a feature and phenomena continuously repeating itself from the time unknown.
The sunrise marks the cessation of a prolonged dark night and the 'rest period' for living beings and proclaims the time for activities and toils of chores, work, and activities. Folks are energized; wish and pray for a good day. The first ever sunshine was the mark of of the "Beginning of the age". They pray it shines for eternity as it has been ever since and maintain the world with its life-sustaining inexorable bounty.
Birds and the animals, our fellow beings on earth, are well ahead in the celebrations of the morning. Like the humans, they are also welcoming the dawn with renewed energy & enthusiasm, glee, and exultations of trills, calls, chatter, sounds of cheerful singing merrily hoping around. The branches of trees and plants jostle trhrough the thickness to situate a vantage point to gain advantage in maximum exposure to the sun. Animals look for prey. They go for huntingI The fish find food in the depths of water. The mornings are daily events of vigorous activities, great joy, and happiness with hopes for good tidings to come for all the beings and ready to face whatever may follow thereafter.
The lyrics stand over the notes prompting you to sing in perfect pitch and harmony! It must be sung with reverential devotion, and sweetly to your taste!
