This first song delves into the rich tapestry of Sumerian mythology, particularly focusing on an Ekur, a word for a sacred mountain house with significant cultural and historical importance. It also discusses the parallels between different cultures' views on spirituality and the divine hierarchy by comparing Ekur as a counterpart to Mount Olympus, which fits as it too was also a place of assembly for the gods in the Garden of the gods. However, Ekur was not just a physical structure but a symbol of knowledge and divine connection, and was the most revered and sacred building of ancient Sumerians.
