A Song For Ea Songtext / Lyric

[a. E-A]



I sought after gold, but I found it not

My rules are found by the Conclave of Ur

I am the coxswain, as I shall valiantly face the dangers

With my chariot, I am declared!



[Chorus x2:]

I discover its foundations require cavernous mining in the primal basis

Enlil exhumes my unearthing and makes a sudden decision after Anu arrives



[Chorus II x2:]

Shar shadi il enlil ana kakkab shu gi ikabbi



[b. A Myriad of Portals]



You are falling into the squalls

Spirit fills itself with the tint of the teaching

Messengers of Namtar drink from your toxic well

And sink in the flood of black miasma - drunkenness






[Chorus:]

You are neither male nor female

Don't break the pledge of the zephyr

The broad corrals, high enclosures…

A myriad of portals

Evil it is: Nanna is nigh

Tear the wives from embrace of man

Snatch the child from knees of mothers

Opening the flaps of time



[Bridge:]

Seven, you are in midst of the deep

MA.GUR.UR.NU.AB.ZU



Silence is the slaughter and the seal is the crown

On sacramental grounds, feign as creatures of the Light



[Chorus]

[Bridge]



And the body of the night turned out in daylight to be yours

Order and kindness don't exist like a wing without a bird

And the body of the night turned out in daylight to be yours

Order and kindness don't exist like a tongue without a mouth…

A myriad of portals



[c. Third Tablet]



[1st verse]

At last, my slog is Home to the Tides

Tablet of Fate obtained

As once, my trek is deftly guided

Blue-hued Antu: our way



The Water Thruster

The Tester's Sunbeam

The Giant Kishar



Tablet of Fate attained



The Hammered Bracelet

Deleted Weapons

A Lucid Pathway



To all who assemble,

My words of command are in the hands of Bane

To all who assemble,

My words of command are in the hands of Bane



[Repeat 1st verse]



[d. Warren Of Imhullu]



Now that I have your face by heart,

I look more at your features being the First

You are the perturbing tempest and the worst of all

Inrush!



[Chorus:]

Gathering speed as it blows

- O' Imhullu

To the Abzu, you will follow

Scowl of Waters



Now that I have your voice by heart,

I glance more at your features being the Fourth

You are the distressing Shibbu and the worst of all

Indraft!



[Chorus]



Now that I have your heart by heart…



[e. The Waters - The Denizens]



[Instrumental]



[f. E-A (Reprise)]



[Instrumental]
