Explanation:

Ode is a poetic composition of the lyrical genre that is divided into symmetrical stanzas. The term comes from the Greek word "odés" which means "singing". In Ancient Greece, "ode" was a poem about something sublime composed to be sung individually or in chorus, and with musical accompaniment.

An example of an ode is the country's national anthems, in which the authors pay homage to the homeland and its symbols and are accompanied by musical instruments.
