The Siren of the Woods Lyrics
Enuma ilu aviluma
ardu shamash apkallu baru
Nergal ina ramanisu
annu ki-utu-kam ilu
Parak simati
muballit mitte
Nergal allatu mellamu mesaru
la tapallah Annuaki
kettu puluthu qillatu
Erset la tari eimmu
ina ramanisu melammu
baru dinau
allatu Nergal
sar kissati
Nergal allatua
allatu Adapa
ina ramaniusue
ardu shamash apkallu baru
Nergal ina ramanisu
annu ki-utu-kam ilu
muballit mitte
Nergal allatu mellamu mesaru
la tapallah Annuaki
kettu puluthu qillatu
ina ramanisu melammu
baru dinau
allatu Nergal
sar kissati
allatu Adapa
ina ramaniusue
The Internets also give the translation:
When God's human being Shamash's slave, wise men, saw Nergal in himself This Earth-stomped land became God's.
At a decent throne Of life and death Nergal comes glowing, Not stopping at Senior Gods As he was fear's bride.
In the land with no return In it's glory The look upon judgement Gave birth to Nergal The king of underground.
Nergal was born, Adapa suffered, of what was in himself
