Meaning
The birds are calling in the flowering groves. The night has gone and the dawn has come. The roar of the eastern sea rises everywhere. The devas have come in, carrying lovely garlands of mixed flowers around which happy bees hum, to bow at Your two feet. So, my Lord, our Lord of the temple where the king of Lanka offers worship, graciously rise from Your sleep!
