Strictly, it means "I rise", the infinitive being "oriri". The full
parsing 
and semantic range may be seen in these entries:

  http://archimedes.fas.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/dict?word=orior&name=ls

It's trisyllabic with the stress on the first syllable - a bit like 
"corridor" without the "c" and the "d".
