PERFECT CHILD OF LOVE
WHO’S RISING
IS THE LIFE OF THE POPULACE,
AT
THE SIGHT OF WHOM THE NINE DIVINITIES REJOICE;
FOR
WHOM THE POWERS OF THE SACRED CITY
DANCE
IN JOY;
FOR
WHOM THE SPIRITS OF EARTH EXALT!
THE
TWO GODDESSES NOURISH THEE AND SING FOR THEE!
“OBEISANCE TO YOU!” SAY THE HORIZON BABOONS,
“ADORATION TO YOU!” SAY ALL CREATURES.
“you have mingled thy rays with nun
and the sky goddess gleams lapis-blue beside thee;
“the ship of the morning has absorbed you,
elating thy heart as in victory as your
rebellious one fells thy foes;
“You rejoice on your sacred boat,
your crew is at peace;
"lord of the divine beings WHOM YOU HAVE CREATED, they give thee praise.”
I
am a healthy person upon the earth;
May
you shine for me
that
I may see thy perfection.
I
give praise to your perfect face
As
you rise in the horizon of heaven.
MAY I GLORIFY THE SUN DISK
AT ITS SETTING ON THAT MOUNTAIN
OF THE LIFE OF THE TWO LANDS!
