Mummu Tiamat she who bore them |

Naught primordial Apsu their begetter |
|
(CHORUS) |
|
And the earth has been done and the life has just begun |
|
and the formless void and darkness outdone |
|
And the water has been done and the sky raised up |
|
separating the water the genesis goes on |
|
And the greater light has been done and the lesser light spun |
|
to rule the day and night together with the stars |
|
And the living creatures has been done |
|
and the sea monsters have born |
|
and everything that moves with which the waters swarm |
|
She made the Worm the Dragon |
|
The Female Monster the Great Lion |
|
The Mad Dog the Man Scorpion |
|
The Howling Storm |
|
(CHORUS) |
|
And the greater light has been done |
|
and the lesser light spun |
|
to rule the day and night |
|
together with the stars |
