Hail, God revived in glory! 
The night is over and done; 
Far mountains wrinkled and hoary, 
Fair cities great in story, 
Flash in the rising sun. 

Behold the Dawn uncloses 
The shutters of the night; 
The Waste and her oases 
Blossoms a rose of roses 
Beneath thy rose-red light. 

Hail, golden House of Horus, 
Lap of heaven's holiest God! 
From lotos-banks before us 
Birds in ecstatic chorus 
Fly, singing, from the sod. 

Up, up, into the shining, 
Translucent morning sky, 
No longer dull and pining, 
With drooping plumes declining, 
The storks and eagles fly. 

The Nile amid his rushes 
Reflects thy risen disk; 
A light of gladness gushes 
Through kindling halls, and flushes 
Each flaming Obelisk. 

Vast Temples catch thy splendour; 
Vistas of columns shine 
Celestial, with a tender 
Rose-bloom on every slender 
Papyrus-pillared shrine. 

In manifold disguises, 
And under many names, 
Thrice-holy son of Isis, 
We worship him who rises 
A child-god fledged in flames. 

Hail, sacred Hawk, who, winging, 
Crossest the heavenly sea! 
With harp-playing, with singing, 
With linen robes, white clinging, 
We come, fair God, to thee. 

Thou whom our soul espouses, 
When weary of the way, 
Enter our golden houses, 
And, with thy mystic spouses, 
Rest from the long, long way.
