The Hymn of Atlaua.

Reading edition

I Chalmecatl, I Chalmecatl, I leave behind my sandles, I leave my sandles and my helmet.

Go ye forth and follow the goddess Quilaztli, follow her

I shall call upon thee to arise when among the shields, I shall call upon thee to arise.

I boast of my arrows, even my reed arrows, I boast of my arrows, not to be broken.

Arrayed in priestly garb, take the arrow in thy hand, for even now I shall arise and come forth like the quetzal bird.

Mighty is my god Atlaua; truly I shall arise and come forth like the quetzal bird.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
