"Bright is the earth, When thou risest in the horizon, When thou shinest as Aton by day. The darkness is banished, When thou sendest forth thy rays, The Two Lands [Egypt] are in daily festivity, Awake and standing upon their feet, For thou hast raised them up. Their limbs bathed, they take their clothing: Their arms uplifted in adoration to thy dawning, Then in all the world, they do their work."
