Commissioned by Elana Kann for the occasion of her adopted daughter Jyothi's 16th birthday.

Notes from Billy: Jyoti was born in India, and her name means "ray of light" in Hindi.

Elana: "My family surprised Jyothi with this song as part of her Sweet Sixteen dance party. The DJ helped me weave it in among the dancing. Everything stopped when this song came on -- people gathered around Jyothi, she looked stunned, burst into tears, came over to me, and I held her through the song. It was deeply moving to both of us, and to her guests. Because she had been through some traumatic experiences during the year before, it was also healing I think to hear that alluded to in such a beautiful poetic way. Thank you!"

Jyothi: "I felt overwhelmed when I heard it. In a good way!"
