"The Twilight Chant" was composed by the Kashoonara of the planet Kashoon. It was addressed to Hurrungat and his steed Aarwynn as they tied the day and night together. The text of the chant was:

"O noble Hurrungat
Darkness calls, twilight falls
Across our world, across our tribes
Lead us then into the night
Of teeth and eyes and anger grave
Upon your steed Aarwynn, first humbaba
Of the sacred line born beneath the Tree-Queen's fingers.

Great Hurrungat
The breezes cry for our lands
Crushed beneath the Tyrant's fist

Great Aarwynn
Bear our twilight from us
Deliver us into angry darkness
Before the coming of the sun.
"
