From sleep, rays of sun light my way into a new day.

It is full of fire and makes our crops grow big and grow strong, reaching high, almost up to the sky.

Mighty and strong is the sun god.

The sun goes away and guides the moon god into the sky, giving rest to the day creatures, then comes up once again the next day.

You, who has shown on me millennium upon millennium, making me of true color - visible by day, caressed by nightfall; as the earth is fed by a warm rain, so doth my tear fade willingly away in your presence, as you strengthen my soul.
