Hail to you, Horakhty, Khepri the self-created! How beautiful is your shining forth from the horizon when you illumine the Two Lands with your rays! All the gods are in joy when they see you as king of the sky, the royal serpent being firm on your head and the crowns of Upper and Lower Egypt on your vertex; she (the serpent) has made her seat on your brow. Thoth is established in the bow of your Sacred Bark, destroying all your foes, while those who are in the Netherworld have come out to meet you and to see this beautiful image.

I have come to you and I am with you in order to see your disc every day; I will not be restrained or repulsed, but my flesh will be renewed at seeing your beauty, like all those whom you favour, for I was one of those who were well esteemed by you on earth. I have arrived at the land of eternity, I have joined myself to the land of everlasting, and it is you who commanded it for me, O my lord.

You appear in glory in magnifying your beauty, creating yourself; you mould your own flesh. One who fashions but is not fashioned, as Re who shines in the sky. May you permit me to reach the eternal sky, the country of the favoured; may I join with the august and noble spirits of the realm of the dead; may I ascend with them to see your beauty when you shine in the evening. Your mother traverses for you the Lower Sky when you are placed in the West, and my arms are upraised in adoration at your setting, for you are he who made eternity. I worship you when you set in the Abyss, and I set you in my heart which is not inert, O you who are more divine than the gods.

My vision is cleared, my heart is in its place, which is on the White Crown which is with me; I am Re who protects himself, and I am not harmed. Live, O my father, the son of Nu, for I am your eldest son who sees the secret things; I appear as king of the gods, and I will not die a second time.
