When the moon is up to rise
And the wind is blowing stronger
The ancient gods awake
Blessing us all with their grace
Ningishzida, Lord of the serpent roots
Listen and remember
Ereshkigal, Queen of the Great Earth, and of what hides below
Listen and remember
Arise Spirits of the Earth
And give foundation unto this most Sacred Place
May it become fertile and serve the Great Work
And the principalities there of
Zi-Zi Mus-Hus-Sig.Gi-Gi-Lul-La-Nefs Gul-Gul! Zalag!
Call to the north !
- Spirits of the Earth
Call to the east !
- Spririts of the air
Call to the south !
- Spirits of great fire
Call to the west !
- Spirits of living water
Now that you all have heard my call
And Ereshkigal has sent her blessings
Ningishzida came to us
Awaking lust and fertilizing earth again
Call to the north !
- Earth
Call to the east !
- Air
Call to the south !
- Fire
Call to the west !
- Water
