A song for Nebt-het, my spiritual mother.

lyrics

sister of shadows, come sit beside me
death’s soft release, set my heart free
lady of the house of the gods in the sky
I praise your sweet name, Nebt-het, holy

she who comes from the lines in-between
key to the Duat and all things Unseen
show me what you find with your eyes so keen
flow through my life as a cooling breeze
teach me to soothe grief and pain with your ease
reach out to me and bridge this ravine

sister of shadows, come sit beside me
death’s soft release, set my heart free
lady of the house of the gods in the sky
I praise your sweet name, Nebt-het, holy

blessed by my lady’s subtle guidance
unrest in my heart no longer sensed
this road before me curls up like incense
myth became mother at autumn’s end
lead me, my lady, through tales unpenned
seed me with strength forever hence

sister of shadows, come sit beside me
death’s soft release, set my heart free
lady of the house of the gods in the sky
I praise your sweet name, Nebt-het, holy

dark are the kite wings of night’s embrace
glad are my eyes for my lady’s grace
cool are her hands as she touches my face
fuel for my heart is her gentle smile
guide to the souls living through the Nile
bide here, my mother, in sacred space

sister of shadows, come sit beside me
death’s soft release, set my heart free
lady of the house of the gods in the sky
I praise your sweet name, Nebt-het, holy
Nebt-het, holy, Nebt-het, holy, Nebt-het, holy
