MODERN HYMNS AND POETRY FOR HORUS THE ELDER

For Heru-wer
by Lykeia

Heru-wer, sitting at the east and west, glorious light upon the earth,
Bright eyed god, double torched, you sit upon your throne at the centrestone
Upon the crested mount where the palm nodds to the ancient sea of its birth
There you turn to the right, opening your gold star eye, shining light upon the azure sky
And to the left you turn to the embrace of night, and let shine the gentle lunar light
To rise among those heavenly embers, burning in the down of your feathered breast
Ageless sparks revealed from dark coal plumes, the midnight ashes beneath flaming wings.
O broad winged serpent-striker, your trebbling cry drives terror into the dark
There the coiled children of dusk and twilight lay in submission before your feet
Their venemous jeweled heads grasped firmly in the circle of your hands
And the ropes of their bodies twined together stand as pillar, a staff to your power
For as the sun rots life away but its gentle light bring fruitation to all things,
So the golden serpent is tempered by your might to take the throne of its seat
The stone-eyed uadjet curved upon your brow to rest upon your fiery crown.
Hail Heru-wer master of the days and nights, master of poison and good health
Far-striking lord, far-seeing and far-weilding, winged fire of the heavens.

Horus am I
by Melia

Horus am I
God of Sky
My right eye is bright,
The other, of reflected light.
The stars are my chest markings,
The wind, breath of my wings.
My namesake, the child of my sister.
Patron, warrior, protector
God of Sky
Horus am I
