Nunbarshegunu Songtext / Lyric

The old woman of Nippur

Instructs Ninlil to walk the banks of Idnunbirdu

She thrusts he magic (k)

To harvest the mind of the great

Mountain-lord Enlil



The bright-eyed king will fall to your anguish

His soul lures the hexagonal room

He who decrees fates - his spirit is caught

His soul lured to the hexagonal room



Nunbarshegunu

A silk veil strewn over you

Your face is the cosmos

You hide it in shame






The lord of fates enthralled

He's bound to Ninlil



The lord of fates enthralled

He's bound to Ninlil

Your daughter, your weapon

You want to be the cosmos!



No shame, no limits

Mother of Ninlil acts

Lord of the fates deluded

To Kurnugi, Enlil is cast

Sin is conceived in the monarchy of death

The dynasty persists: the lunar god comes

To life!



Nunbarshegunu

A silk veil strewn over you

Your face is the cosmos

You hide it in shame
