Aton Waters the Earth

Thou makest a Nile in the netherworld;

Thou bringest it forth at thy pleasure,

To give life to the people of Egypt.[23]

For thou madest them for thyself,

Thou lord of all who travailest with them;

Thou lord of every land who shinest for them;

The Aton of the day, great in majesty.

All distant lands; thou givest them life also,

For thou hast set a Nile in the sky.[24]

That it may descend for them and make waves upon the mountains,[25]

Like the great green sea,

To water their fields in their villages.
