Midnight
Midnight – Khephra (North)
Intro
I trust the dark.
The Sun is not seen.
Its work continues.
In the darkest hour of night,
I trust what I cannot see.
(I trust what I cannot see.)
Verse 1 – Original
Hail unto Thee who art Kephrah in Thy hiding,
even unto Thee who art Kephrah in Thy silence,
who travellest over the heavens in thy bark
at the Midnight Hour of the Sun.
Tahuti standeth in His splendour at the prow,
and Ra-Hoor-Khuit abideth at the helm.
Hail unto Thee from the Abodes of Evening.
(Hail unto Thee from the Abodes of Evening.)
Chorus
Hidden creative force, unseen will —
I trust the dark.
(I trust the dark.)
Verse 2 – Interpretation
I greet you, hidden sun —
in your silence and your steady, unseen journey.
Your solar boat rolls through the underworld at midnight,
carrying the light to the east.
Wisdom rides in the front, wordless and knowing.
Fierce joy steers from the back, unhurried.
I greet you from the houses of evening —
from the quiet hours where I rest and dream,
where the work of renewal happens without my eyes.
The dark holds what is becoming.
I close my eyes and trust the turning.
Chorus
Hidden creative force, unseen will —
I trust the dark.
(I trust the dark.)
Outro
I sleep in the arms of the hidden light.
(I sleep in the arms of the hidden light.)
