Herald of Heaven Lyrics


The realm of darkness is overwhelming sleep

It's a towering flood

To the liar it speaks lies

Like torrents that burst out

To the truthful it speaks the truth

Bull and gazelle keep staring at me

Is this you? Zangara, god of dreams

Reveal yourself I expect for your wish

Express your will

Descend on me

Barehanded he chases the brown wild bull

Like a wrestler he makes it submit to his strength

Gazelle's horns shining brighter than the stars

As the flame devours the flesh

He starts to pray

Enlil

I praise your reign

Master of the universe

Apsu

Cosmic water

Flowing through the ethers drain

Enki

Thy is craft and magic

Art and wisdom unsurpassed

Nammu

Primordial ocean

Mother of creation

The sun is rising

The skies are stained in gold

I bring my offering

In this momentum of magical perfection

I open the gate to the other world

Inside Lugalbanda the herald of heaven was born

Hear the spell

Anzu speaks

The power of running be in your thighs

Set foot wherever you cast your glance

Strength be in your arms

Reach wherever your heart desires

Hear the spell

Full of grace

So walk right

Through the darkest nights

Join the war of your father's land

Fear no more

The herald of heaven is now reborn

Barehanded he chases the brown wild bull

Like a wrestler he makes it submit to his strength

Gazelle's horns shining brighter than the stars

As the flame devours the flesh

He starts to pray

Enlil

I praise your reign

Master of the universe

Apsu

Cosmic water

Flowing through the ethers drain

Enki

Thy is craft and magic

Art and wisdom unsurpassed

Nammu

Primordial ocean

Mother of creation

Ninlil

Daughter of Anu

See her ride the thunderstorm

Utu

Thy is the sun

I will keep up your legacy

Nanna

Your crescent moon

Shines through my devoted soul

Nergal

King of the dead

Aid us in war for victory

Enlil

Apsu

Enki

Nammu

Ninlil

Daughter of Anu

See her ride the thunderstorm

Utu

Thy is the sun

I will keep up your legacy

Nanna

Your crescent moon

Shines through my devoted soul

Nergal

King of the dead

Aid us in war for victory
