Lyrics The First Commandment Of The Luminaries - The Ocean

The First Commandment Of The Luminaries

The sun is a luminary whose egress
Is an opening of the sky
Which is found on the west
And in the east lies its ingress
The sun is rising through six openings
And there are six through with 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
