"Earth mother, star mother,
You who are called by a thousand names,
we are cells in your body
and dance together.
You are the grain
and the loaf
That sustains us each day,
And as you are patient
with our struggles to learn
So shall we be patient
with ourselves and each other.
We are radiant light
and sacred dark
-- the balance --
You are the embrace that heartens
And the freedom beyond fear.
Within you we are born
we grow, live, and die --
You bring us around the circle
to rebirth,
Within us you dance
Forever."

ISIS

 

From The Egyptian Book of the Dead

 

 Come to me. Come to me, for my speech hath in it the power to protect, and it possesseth life.

I am Isis the goddess,

and I am the lady of words of power.

Isis, the goddess and great enchantress at the head of the gods.

Heaven was satisfied with the words of the goddess Isis.

The great lady,

the God-mother, giver of life.

The divine one,

the only one,

the greatest of the gods and goddesses,

the queen of all gods,

the female Ra,

the female Horus,

the eye of Ra

Lady of the New Year,

maker of the sunrise,

Lady of heaven,

the light-giver of heaven.

Queen of the earth,

most mighty one,

lady of warmth and fire,

the God-mother.

The lady of life,

lady of green crops,

lady of bread,

lady of abundance,

lady of joy and gladness,

lady of love,

the maker of kings,

the beautiful goddess,

the lady of words of power.

Wife of the lord of the abyss.

 Let the blood of Isis,

and the magical spirits of Isis and the words of power of Isis,

be mighty to protect and keep safely this great god.

 

Translated by E. A. Wallis Budge
