Meaning
The sun has climbed the eastern hill and the thick night has melted into morning; great blossoms open and drip honey. Gods and kings stream in from every side to see the Lord, bringing their elephants and thundering drums, until the whole place roars like a wave-tossed sea. So the poet calls to the Lord of Srirangam: awaken now and rise from your bed.
