To Hephaestus and Athena
Great Hephaestus of the strong arms
Great Hephaestus of the lame feet
Great Hephaestus of the burn scars
Let your spirit fill us
Let it inspire us to persevere
Let it guide us to grow
Great Athena of the gray eyes
Great Athena of the nimble fingers
Great Athena of the quick mind
Let your spirit fill us
Let it inspire us to action
Let it guide us to wisdom
Lord Hephaestus
Lady Athena
Let your spirits flow and fill us with skill
The skills of the craftsmen
The skills of the weaver
The skills of those who with the toil of their hands bring forth beauty and art in textile, metal, and stone
Lady Athena
Lord Hephaestus
Let your spirits be an eternal reminder
That we are not just what we are
But also what we do and leave behind for others to take joy in
