Hail God revived in gloryA
The night is over and doneB
Far mountains wrinkled and hoaryA
Fair cities great in storyA
Flash in the rising sunB
-
Behold the Dawn unclosesC
The shutters of the nightD
The Waste and her oasesC
Blossoms a rose of rosesC
Beneath thy rose red lightD
-
Hail golden House of HorusC
Lap of heaven's holiest GodE
From lotos banks before usC
Birds in ecstatic chorusC
Fly singing from the sodE
-
Up up into the shiningF
Translucent morning skyG
No longer dull and piningF
With drooping plumes decliningF
The storks and eagles flyG
-
The Nile amid his rushesC
Reflects thy risen diskH
A light of gladness gushesC
Through kindling halls and flushesC
Each flaming ObeliskH
-
Vast Temples catch thy splendourA
Vistas of columns shineI
Celestial with a tenderA
Rose bloom on every slenderA
Papyrus pillared shrineI
-
In manifold disguisesC
And under many namesC
Thrice holy son of IsisC
We worship him who risesC
A child god fledged in flamesC
-
Hail sacred Hawk who wingingH
Crossest the heavenly seaC
With harp playing with singingH
With linen robes white clingingH
We come fair God to theeC
-
Thou whom our soul espousesC
When weary of the wayJ
Enter our golden housesC
And with thy mystic spousesC
Rest from the long long wayJ
