It is open. It watches. It sees all.
I am the Eye of Horus,
Created in the corn
By the Phantom Mower.
Opened by the power
Of Osiris, my brother.

I am the Eye of Horus
I see up and beyond
Into the sky home
Of the Gods, deserted
By the Old Ones

I am the Eye of Horus
I see down and deep,
Into the black, firey depths,
Where Kek holds sway
In darkness and chaos.

I am the Eye of Horus
I am the sun that burns
I am the moon that soothes
Hawk headed, I bequeath
My insight to all who see.

I am the Eye of Horus
Always here, always watching
You, who have forgotten
I have remade myself
To see into your soul.

I am the Eye of Horus
When I am cut down
You, the mortal, will
Eat my bread.
And know me once more.
