When on high the heaven, had not be named

Firm ground below was unnamed

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
