The sword of Orion opens the doors of the sky.
Before the doors close again the gate to the path
over the fire, beneath the holy ones as they grow dark
As a falcon flies as a falcon flies, may Unis rise into this fire
Beneath the holy ones as they grow dark.
They make a path for Unis, Unis takes the path,
Unis becomes the falcon star, Sirius. [...]
Though placed in the tomb, men fly away to them, the stars.
Sirius makes Unis fly to heaven among his brothers, the stars. [...]
The shining falcon is yours, Unis,
He does not give it to another rising to him.
Unis goes to the sky with you falcon shining. [...]
Unis himself is destroyed upon his ascent to heaven.
Wepwawet flies Unis to heaven among his brothers the stars.
