𑌨𑌟𑌰𑌾𑌜 𑌸𑍍𑌤𑍋𑌤𑍍𑌰𑌂 (𑌪𑌤𑌂𑌜𑌲𑌿 𑌕𑍃𑌤𑌮𑍍) This hymn is composed by Sage 𑌪𑌤𑌂𑌜𑌲𑌿, (the author of 𑌯𑍋𑌗𑌸𑍂𑌤𑍍𑌰). It is remarkable in completely avoiding long vowels(𑌆, 𑌈, 𑌊, 𑌏, 𑌓, 𑌐, 𑌔). Where ever a heavy syllable is needed, 𑌪𑌤𑌂𑌜𑌲𑌿 employs an 𑌅𑌨𑍁𑌸𑍍𑌵𑌾𑌰 (𑌙𑍍, 𑌞𑍍, 𑌣𑍍, 𑌨𑍍, 𑌮𑍍) in stead, and occasionally other consonant endings. So visually the hymn does not contain feet like 𑌕𑌾, 𑌕𑍀, 𑌕𑍂, 𑌕𑍋, 𑌕𑍌 do; or horns like 𑌕𑍇, 𑌕𑍈, 𑌕𑍋, 𑌕𑍌 do. This is an astounding feat given that every fourth syllable needs to be a heavy syllable (𑌗𑍁𑌰𑍁). As a result, you will hear the nasal sound 𑌅𑌨𑍁𑌸𑍍𑌵𑌾𑌰 every fourth syllable! Also not very coincidentally, 𑌪𑌤𑌂𑌜𑌲𑌿's name itself does not contain legs or horns! There are two stories regarding its origin. 2. Once Sage 𑌵𑍍𑌯𑌾𑌘𑍍𑌰𑌪𑌾𑌦 teases 𑌪𑌤𑌂𑌜𑌲𑌿, saying "How can you see the Cosmic Dance of the Lord, when you do not even have horns or feet?". 𑌪𑌤𑌂𑌜𑌲𑌿 composes this hymn as an answer, symbolically cutting 𑌵𑍍𑌯𑌾𑌘𑍍𑌰𑌪𑌾𑌦's (meaning Tiger-foot) feet. The meter for this song is also called 𑌚𑌰𑌣𑌶𑍃𑌂𑌗𑌰𑌹𑌿𑌤𑌮𑍍. And now the hymn in praise of Lord 𑌨𑌟𑌰𑌾𑌜 without the use of 𑌚𑌰𑌣 (feet) and 𑌶𑍃𑌂𑌗 (horns); indicative of 𑌨𑌂𑌦𑌿 and 𑌭𑍃𑌂𑌗𑌿, Lord 𑌶𑌿𑌵's attendants, as a metaphor; and indicative of long vowels of the alphabet, as poetic decoration!
