Welcome Sun God

                                                           

      + Splendid you rise in heaven's lightland,

               O living Aten, creator of life!

            When you have dawned in eastern lightland,

 

               [[You fill every land with your beauty.

 

               You are beauteous, great, radiant,

 
                        High over every land;

 

                Your rays embrace the lands,

 

                   To the limit of all that you made.

 

 

               Being Re, you reach their limits,

 

            You bend them for the son whom you love;

            

            Though you are far, your rays are on earth,

 

          Though one sees you, your strides are unseen.

 

 

                                     xxxx

                   

 

 

 

 

                              You wake me

 

 

                    peep through curtains of my room

 

 

                           with all splendour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

My Haiku has been distilled  from the lines on the top
