Maria and Hana aren't the only female names mentioned in Ayu's discography anymore (SAKURA too has added to this)...
"Gloria" and "glory" are also words synonymous with "halo". So lyrically, I think it could be a bit like "ANGEL'S SONG" with a gloria instead of a pair of wings. Just a theory though, Ayu has a habit of surprising us after all...
