Enki and the Anunnaki

Copyright 2025 Lyrics: Jax Latour: after a bit of Mesopotamian Research. Dedicated to the ancient ones. [Intro] [Verse 1 Spoken Whispered with Ambient Sound] In the dust of Sumer’s land The rivers flow where kings once stood In the shadows of the ziggurats We seek the gods to cleanse the blood Akkadian tongues rise with the dawn Under the eyes of Enki’s light In the sacred waters we call for peace To heal the wounds of the ancient night [Chorus In Mesopotamian Language + English Translation] [Line 1 Akkadian] Iškur rabû šumšu (Eesh-koor ra-boo shum-shoo) Ishkur mighty one hear me [Line 2 Akkadian] Šamaš uššû izziz (Sha-mash oosh-shoo iz-ziz) Shamash bring justice bring light [Line 3 Sumerian] Gula nigin2 šu ba-an-gal (Goo-lah nee-gin shu ban-gahl) Gula heal the broken heal the soul [Line 4 Akkadian] Anu nārû šu-ḫi-ṭu (Ah-noo nah-roo shu-kee-too) Anu the sky god bless us with your favor [Verse 2 Shifting Patterns with Rhythm] The sacred flame within the temple Glows beneath the dust and stone Through the veils of time we see their faces The gods who walk though we are alone We offer grain and honeyed wine In honor of the Anunnaki’s might Through the Tigris and Euphrates flow The blood of kings beneath the moonlight [Chorus Repeated] [Line 1 Akkadian] Iškur rabû šumšu (Eesh-koor ra-boo shum-shoo) Ishkur mighty one hear me [Line 2 Akkadian] Šamaš uššû izziz (Sha-mash oosh-shoo iz-ziz) Shamash bring justice bring light [Line 3 Sumerian] Gula nigin2 šu ba-an-gal (Goo-lah nee-gin shu ban-gahl) Gula heal the broken heal the soul [Line 4 Akkadian] Anu nārû šu-ḫi-ṭu (Ah-noo nah-roo shu-kee-too) Anu the sky god bless us with your favor [Bridge] Through the stars we hear the call The Anunnaki rise they never fall From the heavens their voice is near We walk in shadows yet feel no fear In the stones the answers lie Echoing deep beneath the sky From the earth the spirits rise Beneath the stars we’re born again [Chorus Repeated with More Intensity] [Line 1 Akkadian] Iškur rabû šumšu (Eesh-koor ra-boo shum-shoo) Ishkur mighty one hear me [Line 2 Akkadian] Šamaš uššû izziz (Sha-mash oosh-shoo iz-ziz) Shamash bring justice bring light [Line 3 Sumerian] Gula nigin2 šu ba-an-gal (Goo-lah nee-gin shu ban-gahl) Gula heal the broken heal the soul [Line 4 Akkadian] Anu nārû šu-ḫi-ṭu (Ah-noo nah-roo shu-kee-too) Anu the sky god bless us with your favor [Outro Ambient Fade and Whispered Words] Enki guide us through the depths In the sacred waters we find our truth The Anunnaki hear the gods are near We walk the path eternal and clear [Fade outro] [Finish]
