Sunrise after Dust Storm

When high winds on the coast create dust on the horizon, the sun rises lemon yellow.

῍Ω θείας! ὢ φίλης! ὢ γλυκυτάτης σου φωνῆς! μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἀψευδῶς γάρ, ἐπηγγείλω, ἔσεσθαι, μέχρι τερμάτων αἰῶνος Χριστέ· ἣν οἱ πιστοί, ἄγκυραν ἐλπίδος, κατέχοντες ἀγαλλόμεθα.

O Thy divine and beloved and most sweet voice; Thou hast truly promised that Thou wouldst be with us unto the end of the world, O Christ; and we faithful rejoice, having this as an anchor of hope.

From the Ninth Ode of Paschal Matins
