ASCENDING TOWARD THE SKY (Allen)
The sky has been bled and Sothis lives, for Unis is the living one,
Sothiss son, for whom the Dual Ennead have cleaned the imperishable Striker. Uniss house for the sky will not perish,
Uniss seat for the earth will not end.
People have hidden, the gods have flown away, for Sothis has flown
Unis to the sky amidst his brothers the gods. Nut has bared her arms
to Unis; the two foremost bas of the bas of Heliopolis, who spent the
night making that gods bewailing, have knelt down at the Suns head.
Uniss seat is with you, Sun, and he will not give it to any other. So,
Unis will go up to the sky by you, Sun, the face of Unis as that of
falcons, Uniss wings as those of birds, his nails as the talons of Him
of Atfet.

458: To say the words:
"Serene(?) is the sky, Soped lives (i.e., shines), for it is Unas indeed who is the living (star), the son of Sothis.
The Two Enneads have purified (themselves) for him as Meskhetiu (Great Bear), the Imperishable Stars.
The House of Unas which is in the sky will not perish,
the throne of Unas which is on earth will not be destroyed.
459: The humans (rm.tjw) hide themselves, the gods fly up,
Sothis has let Unas fly towards Heaven amongst his brothers the gods.
Nut the Great has uncovered her arms for Unas.
460: The two souls at the head of the souls of Heliopolis have bowed down at the beginning of the day,
they who have passed the night while they made this bewailing for the god.
The throne of Unas is with you, Re. He will not give it to any other god.
461: He (Unas) ascends (on it ?) towards heaven near you, Re,
while his face (is like that of) hawks, his wings (are like those) of apd-geese,
his talons (like) the fangs of He-of-the-Dju-ef-nome.

The sky has been bled (at dawn) and Sothis lives, because I, King Unas, I am a living one, the son of Sothis, for
whom the Dual Ennead have cleaned the imperishable Striker. My house in the sky will not end. My throne of the
Two Lands on Earth will not end.
Men hide, (but) the gods fly away !
Sothis has flown me to the sky into the company of my brothers the gods. Nut the great has uncovered her arms
for me. The Two Bas, who are at the head of the Bas of Iunu (Heliopolis), who attend on Re, have bowed
themselves, they who spend the night making this mourning for the god.
My seat is with You, O Re, and I will give it to nobody else. I will ascend to the sky to You, O Re, for my face is
that of falcons, my wings are those of birds, my talons are the fangs of Him of Atfet.
