The forgotten sage
Hard rapLyrics
Hermes Trismegistus, the thrice-great sage
Whose wisdom transcends both space and age
A legendary figure, wrapped in mystery
Pioneering alchemy and ancient chemistry
The Emerald Tablet, his magnum opus
Unveiling secrets of the cosmic nexus
"As above, so below," the Hermetic creed
Uniting spirit and matter, thought and deed
Across the centuries his influence unfurled
Inspiring seekers to transform the world
Philosopher's stone and transmutation
Alchemical arts and divine creation
Thoth incarnate, scribe of gods on high
Wielding the caduceus, he traverses sky
Messenger of mysteries, psychopomp sublime
Bridging mortal and immortal, space and time
His Corpus Hermeticum, a trove arcane
Neo-Platonists and Gnostics did entertain
Sparking Renaissance magic and esoterica
Rosicrucian, Masonic lore and metaphysica
O Trismegistus, master of the Threefold Way
Uniting Atum-Ra, Hermes and Mercurius in your sway
Your prisca theologia still shines today
Illuminating seekers as we find our way
The Thrice-Great Hermes, forever shall you reign
In human hearts and minds, your gnosis we attain
Weaving word and world in alchemical twine
Trismegistus triumphant, Hermes the divine!
