Protogenoi of Night & Darkness

parents of Gods and Daimones,

Parents of Moirai, controllers of Fate

Nyx, mother of Gods and humans & Daimones,

Wife to Erebos

you who brings peace under the guise of Night

Nyx, also called Kypris & Nox

Hear my supplicating voice and

attend these rites and prayers

Erebos, father of Gods and Daimones,

protogenos of Darkness, husband to Nyx,

whom we also call Skotos

You who bring solace and peace through darkness

take away the fear of darkness

Hear my supplicating voice and

attend these rites and prayers

So we mortals can honour You Protogenoi

This hymn was inspired by the Orphic hymn to Nyx.
