Collated Text[edit | edit source]

Amaunator, sun's bright light

Shines the truth into man's laws.

Speak His name to stop a fight;

Then, invoke a legal clause.


Beware dread Asmodeus

Both His word and promise sweet.

More able to betray us

Than the devils at His feet.


Auril is merciless and cold

the winter's icy breath.

Spare Her a little food and gold;

So you won't freeze to death.


Azuth, the god of wizards all

Who spend their whole lives learning.

He grants their spells both big and small,

For Mystra Mystra always yearning.


Bane Bane the tyrant, the Black Hand

Makes sure the strong do rule.

He spreads His darkness through the land,

Praised by the harsh and cruel.


Beshaba will bring forth your doom

Unless you chant Her prayer.

Split from Tymora in the womb,

She brings bad luck to spare.


You should not ever pray to Bhaal Bhaal,

The savage Lord of Murder,

His worshipers are killers all

who spread His darkness further.


Chauntea is our Mother Great,

Hers is the hearth and home.

Our harvests on Her blessing wait

Thus we reap what we've sown.


Cyric is the prince of strife,

God of deceit and madness.

Watch for the Dark Sun and His lies,

Who'll rob your bonds of gladness.


Ilmater Ilmater hears the martyr's cries,

Takes in the ill and the oppressed.

When one to help the others dies,

Then by Ilmater they are blessed.


Jergal Jergal, or so it's often said,

Once gave away his bony throne.

For Kelemvor Kelemvor he tracks the dead,

Makes sure that dead souls do not roam.


Kelemvor, Lord of the Dead,

Will take your hand when death arrives.

Makes sure souls are correctly led

To all their proper afterlives.


Leira, Lady of Deception

the goddess who wears many masks.

Invoke Her name - avoid perception

She hides your lies and secret tasks.


For joy, to Lliira you must call

And worship Her through soulfelt dance.

So find Her presence in festhalls;

Do not give idleness a chance.


Loviatar's Loviatar's pleasure is your pain,

Your scars an offering.

Scourge or candle, whip or cane,

Can your devotion bring.


Milil is the Lord of Song.

Pray to Him for inspiration.

Hear His call and sing along.

Let His art be your salvation.


Myrkul Myrkul is the lord of death

Of hopelessness and ending things

He'll come for all at their last breath

Lords and peasants, crooks and kings


Mystra Mystra, goddess of all mages--

She provides and tends the weave.

Revered by many through the ages;

All magic we from her receive.


Selûne Selûne guides us through the night.

She is the moon, the stars her tears.

Her sister tries to douse her light,

But she protects us from our fears.


Shar Shar will take your sorrow from you

But beware: her night is dark.

She'll hide your pain, and secrets too.

And all your joy, and all your spark.


Silvanus Silvanus, god of all that's wild,

Of nature's danger and its charm.

His glory's not to be defiled,

Or you yourself will come to harm.
