The ancient Egyptian religion includes two different and unrelated gods known today as Hapi or Hapy.

The first was a son of Horus, whose name is written in hieroglyphs that include a strange and uncertain sign which may be part of a steering-oar or rudder from a ship. He is depicted with the head of a baboon and is one of the minor gods who protected the organs of a mummy.

The second Hapi is a god of the Nile river and his name is written with the hieroglyphs for h.'.p.y, plus the standard sign for a canal or watercourse. He is shown as a man (or pair of men) with blue or green skin and water-plants growing from the top of his head. He is shown symbolically tying together Upper and Lower Egypt. His many symbols include the papyrus plant, a frog and a hippopotamus.

Ah, what a lovely question! Hapi was a god in ancient Egyptian mythology, often associated with the annual flooding of the Nile River. While Hapi was not typically depicted as having children in the traditional sense, they were seen as a provider of nourishment and fertility to the land through the flooding of the river, which in a way can be seen as nurturing all life that depended on the Nile's waters.

What the tagalog version of the prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi?

We had a song back in high school which I think pertained to the prayer of St. Francis: Nais kong maging kagamitan Panginoon, ng Iyong kapayapaan Saan mang dakong may di pagkakasunduan Nawa hatid ko'y pagmamahal Ibig kong Iyong makasangkapan Sa pagpapalaganap ng kapayapaan Ang kung saan man may nangagkasala Ang pagpapatawad Mo'y aking dala At kung nagdadalamhati Ang alay ko'y galak At kahit na may alinlangan Handog ko'y pananampalataya Sa gitna nitong kadiliman Maging liwanag sa tamang daan At kung may hapis, o may pagtangis Nawa alay kong lagi ay pag asa


What is the Tagalog lyrics to mansion over the hilltop?

MANSION OVER THE HILLTOP Kahit na kubo ang aking tahanan, dito sa lupa'y may kasiyahan. Pagka't sa langit ay may naghihintay na kahariang gintong lantay. Koro: Ako'y may bahay na di masisira, doon sa langit na walang hanggan; Wala nang hapis at laging sariwa, sa piling ng Dios na mayaman. Kahit sa buhay na ito'y mahirap, ang kaulayaw ay dusa't saklap; Walang sariling tirahang tiyak, doon sa langit ako'y may lahat. Huwag kang maawa sa kalagayan ko pagkat sa langit ang aking tungo; Pansamantalang naglalakbay dito hanggang humantong sa Palasyo.
