To Hyperion

All praise to Hyperion, vigilant god,
son of the sky and the broad, blessed earth,
father of sun and night-shining moon,
father of each day’s new dawning,
wise and watchful light of the heavens,
clear-sighted master of all the year’s days,
you know the travels of the stars,
you know the ways of the passing tides.
O god who sees and understands all things,
Hyperion of ancient might, I call to you.
I honor you, good and gracious Hyperion,
I offer you my praise and seek your blessing.

To Theia

All praise to fair Theia, O far-shining goddess,
daughter of heaven and great-hearted earth,
companion of watchful and wary Hyperion,
mother of Eos who greets each day’s breaking,
of wise sun-crowned Helios and dark-haired Selene.
Yours is the might that grants gold its glitter,
that lends its light to each precious gem.
O Theia, O granter of vision and foresight,
mistress of the bright blue heavens,
O Theia, O goddess, I call to you.
I honor you, good and gracious Theia,
I offer you my praise and seek your blessing.
