| Hymn to Amen-Tomb of the architects Suti and Hor from the reign of Amenhotep III | ||
| ( 1391 BCE-1353 BCE) | ||
1. |
Self-made you fashioned your body, |
|
2. |
Creator uncreated. |
|
3. |
Sole one, unique one, who traverses eternity. |
|
4. |
Remote one, with millions under his care ; |
|
5. |
Your splendor is like heaven's splendor, |
|
6. |
Your color brighter than its hues. |
|
7. |
When you cross the sky all faces see you, |
|
8. |
When you set you are hidden from their sight ; |
|
9. |
Daily you give yourself at dawn, |
|
10. |
Safe is your sailing under your majesty. |
|
11. |
In a brief day you race a course, |
|
12. |
Hundred thousands, millions of miles. |
|
13. |
A moment is each day to you, |
|
14. |
It has passed when you go down. |
|
15. |
You also completed the hours of night, |
|
16. |
You order it without pause in your labor. |
|
17. |
Through you do all eyes see, |
|
18. |
They lack aim when your majesty sets. |
|
19. |
When you stir to rise at dawn, |
|
20. |
Your brightness opens the eyes of the herds ; |
|
21. |
When you set in the western mountain, |
|
22. |
They sleep as in the state of death. |
