Raise your voice to the sky,
hearts in hand, uplifted.
Push the dark light away
and sing Hallelujah.


Gayatri Meter
The only difference with the Gayatri mantra “Tripada Gayantri” is that the syllables are divided in 4 pada of 6 syllables. In total the syllables remain 24 but in this case the dividing of the syllables over four lines changes the rhythm of the Gayatri mantra.
