Teodasia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(of) rays colored red.
Surround the sky
where all beings go home
Show the way,
pervade my sight
Here's the Aurora,
The after-life in transit
shows its aura
glowing.
Are you there too?
Here, life and cold and tears
Joy, that you're near.
Above I cry,
for what glows bright now
to come my way,
possess my mind.
Here's the Aurora,
souls that dance.
The after-life in transit
shows its aura
glowing.
Are you there too?
Dancing,
Chanting.
The song “Aurora” by Teodasia begins with a call to rise up like a prayer, as rays of red color surround the sky. It’s as though the singer is searching for a path home, and wants to be guided by the light. The word “Aurora” is defined as a natural electrical phenomenon characterized by the appearance of streamers of reddish or greenish light in the sky, and in this song, it represents the after-life in transit, where souls dance and chant together. The lyrics suggest that the singer is hopeful that she will be able to join in the dance and see the glowing aura of this other world herself.
The second verse describes the singer’s current state of being, with the juxtaposition of life and cold, joy and tears. She cries above for what glows bright now to come her way, as she wishes to possess her mind. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the importance of the Aurora, and the singer’s desire to join in the dance, chanting with the other souls. It’s as though she is asking the listener if they too are there, hoping that they are experiencing the same sense of hope and wonder about the after-life. The song ends with the repetition of “Dancing, chanting”, suggesting that the power of music and movement can be a pathway to enlightenment.
