Description
Short Song Description:
A celebration of sunrise in the high Himalayas
Long Song Description:
The Himalayas, abode of snows
the rush of the river, the spire of blue ice
the echo of bare feet, the sound of the conch
Sunrise, Sunrise
Story Behind the Song:
A pilgrimage in "Dev Bhoomi" the abode of the Gods. The Garhwal mountains, the eternal snows, the shrines and temples on the banks of the sacred rivers. The yogis and ascetics, the recluses and hermits, the ashrams and caves, the hymns and chants, cold mountain streams and hot sulphur springs. The Sacred Himalayas, spiritual home of India.
