We born in the earth ruled by blasphemy

Where the vice of gods the man has created

A tower with a fierce goat threatened the highest

Elevated by giants drowned by the deluge raid

Once in Uruk a new being castred his culture

With clays we have stood the structure of reign

Without a bastard crowd massed in Jericho

Without a bastard god that stole our work

We lead to Inanna into the baptism of sins

To sank her rights into the depths of Nar-Mattaru

We unleash the "Sin" ascent in magic and witchcraft

And then we ordained the land to obeying in terror and cruelty

She appeared from the Absu at the shores of Eridu

Mankind receives it laws once creation was signed

The mistress was given to us pure and chaste

Yielding visions of knowledge captive in our sight

Zigurat

At command of Marduk was reclaimed our realm

With the torch of E-kur flaring up, all hail to thee!

Spears and axes were blazoned all over enemies

and the rain of the archers turned red the heaven

Defying your orders our empire has arrived

While in the battlefield we slay with dexterity

Ei-Dingir, Alla-Xul, Bil-Ur-Sag, bliss

And once again in the tower the man receives the scepter of power...
