Prayer of the Day

உயிரவை நிலை
இருளில் இருளாகி எல்லிடத்தில் எல்லாம்
பொருள்கள் இலதோ புவி. 18
Song as Romanized text
uyiravai n-ilai
iruLil iruLAki ellidaththil ellAm
poruLkaL ilathO puvi. 18
Meaning of the Prayer Song:
Dark in darkness, in brightness - everywhere,
aren't there "things" on this earth?
Notes:
1. el - day / light.
2. Here "poruLkaL" has to be interpreted with reference
to the topic "uyiravai nilai".
The earlier song referred to the
lives that enjoy both the material as well as God,
to be key players in the world.
This song establishes the prevalence of life all through the earth.
3. The earth is filled with life in darkness as well is in the
bright places - everywhere!
