A hymn for the praise of the setting sun
|
In ancient Egypt my home
|
Child of Horus catch the morning star
|
To the Elysian fields we will go
|
|
The god at the top of the staircase
|
The usurper that weighs our hearts
|
In your court I deliver my soul
|
To be coming forth by day
|
|
North, south, east and west
|
My bones lay all around
|
My shadow will soon get rest
|
To higher ground I'll be bound
|
|
In the temple of the dead
|
|
I am the moongod
|
who dwelleth among the dead
|
I shall not perish in heaven or earth
|
I've cleft the horizon,
|
I've passed through the underworld
|
I have divided the heavens
|
and scattered the gloom of night
|
|
To sail the northern heaven
|
With the sacred eye of stars
|
The white crown I bear forever
|
The immortality of my soul
|
