I am, for I was

I am the sun.

I am the moon.

I am the day.

And I am the night.

I am the light that sees into the darkness,

and the darkness that pierces the light.

The child that sees a vision,

forgotten, lacking understanding,

remembers a returning dream,

when as a man the understanding

remembers the vision.

I am everlasting for having been,

remembered by no one,

becoming the sun,

and the moon,

the day,

and the night.
