The First Commandment Of The Luminaries

The sun's a luminary whose egress

Is an opening of the sky

Which is found in the west

And in the east lies its ingress

The sun is rising through six openings,

And there are six through which it sets.

The moon is using the same.

And all the stars, they guide their way.

First there goes out the greatest light

Whose name is the sun.

It's round just like the roundness of the sky;

Filled with light.

The chariot in which it rises is

Driven by the blowing wind.

The great light sets in the west

And returns by the northeast.

In order to go to the east, it is

Guided so that it shall reach

The eastern gate and shine

In the black face of the sky.

First there goes out the greatest light

Whose name is the sun.

It's round just like the roundness of the sky;

Filled with light.

First there goes out

The greatest light

Whose name is the sun.

It's round just like

The roundness of the sky.

First there goes out the greatest light

Whose name is the sun.

It's round just like the roundness of the sky;

Filled with light.
