Mimma lemnu, Lamastu, mumitu
Blood poured: Ardat-Lili, Lamastu Zaqiqu from Irkalla Zaqiqu fly from the grave Vampyric Dead thirsting for blood Emissaries of Chaos Southwinds, Gods of the Night, Annunaki enthroned in the Netherworld Kassaptu Lemuttu, Evil Witch of Eldritch Sorceries Kassapu Lemuttu, Warlock of Udug-Hul! Kassaptu who augurs doom Malice and demonic spells whispered into darkness The wax figure is named and prepared, Limbs twisted rack him in pain Open the grave and his cursed figure Etemmu emerge as Vampyric ghosts 02. The Vampyric Rabisu At The Threshold
From below the horizon I rot in the earth
Netherworld opens for my return Demonic Etemmu to possess this corpse Udug-hul awaken Sedu Rising from the coffin Slumbering among the thirsty dead, Given the powers of the Southwind Born of Anu and Ki, Spirit and Flesh becomes an Evil God Ahhazu, Bel-uri, Rabisu Lamastu, smeared with blood From the corners we drink your blood, eat your soul Lilitu, the pact of nam-erim, Mamitu eternal Seven Dimme, Sebitti, Seven Storms of Darkness Among the ruins and desert wilderness Joined by blood thirsting Etemmu, Restless ghosts howling upon the winds Deathly Alu summoned by demons Drink my fill of blood, as Kasapu, I form clouds against my prey (my shadow standing over her) Storm-clouds cannot be scattered haunting and seizing limbs A ghost is sent as a dream, nightmares cling to her flesh. Fly forth upon nocturnal skies, Darkened clouds, phantom form Akhkharu, Alu, Lamastu, Lilitu necromantic Undead 03. Nergal (Lord Who Prowls By Night)
Irkalla, deathlike dreaming in a tomb
Erra, mighty Usumgallu Enthroned in Kutha Nergal, Lord who Prowls by Night Erra stirred by the Seven Sebitti Furious warriors, rebel gods Seven Udug-Hul consuming, destroying Blazing radiance of Terror, Melammu In the West, Utu has shone forth for you Awe-inspiring dais radiating across the abyss Nergal, who can kill and bring life back Holding the keys to the Netherworld In the East, Nergal is imbued with a terrible radiance Lord of War and Destruction, spiller of blood Nergal, dragon covered in gore Drinking the blood of living creatures Usumgallu who is covered in gore Battle-mace drips blood and flesh Nergal whose power has filled heaven and earth Nergal, angry sea, unleash your awe and terror! 04. Seven Udug-Hul
Spawned of Heaven and Earth, rise from the Netherworld
Seven malefic stars, blazing across the skies Anu and Ki, rebel-gods, demons free to haunt cosmos Melammu is lofty of the Seven Billowing clouds causing gloom in Heaven Blast of rising winds, darkness across the sky Seven gods of the broad heavens Seven gods of the Netherworld Udug-hul, Ala-hul, Gidim-hul, Galla-hul, Dimme, Dima, Dimme-Lagab demons Evil gods whirling as chaos-storms, Enter homes to murder Seven demons, forms change Continual nightmare phantoms Enter the house, shadows in the corner Spirits thirsting for blood Evil God, Demon of the Steppe, Utukku of the Mountain, Udug-hul, Ala-hul, Gidim-hul, Galla-hul, Dimme, Dima, Dimme-Lagab demons Demons of the Sea, Udug of the Tomb A Goring-Ox, Ghost raging against life Eating flesh, spilling blood Drinking blood from veins Gallu-demons filled with malevolence, Never cease consuming blood Ala great demon of perversion, night-haunting to possess prey Destroy bodies from the inside, Legion! Udug-hul, Ala-hul, Gidim-hul, Galla-hul, Dimme, Dima, Dimme-Lagab demons Udug-hul slips over the threshold Devouring, destroying, kill the father, kill the son Evil Udug spares no one Etemmu and Utukku ride on winds of evil spells 05. Scourge Of Lamashtu (She Who Strangles The Lamb)
She is fierce, violent, Lamastu of divine power
Terrifying is the Daughter of Anu Lamastu is a she-wolf, claws are the Anzu Her hands are decay, face of a raging lion Bring me your sons, I will nurse them poisoned, Rotten pestilence, black blood Bring me your daughters for I am thirsty In the mouth of the young I shall place my breast She who Strangles the Lamb She comes forth from the marshes Her hair hanging loose, and clothes stripped off Lamastu's hands, caked in flesh and blood She enters the window, Lamastu! Slithering over the door casing like a snake Long claws, seize the infant seven times She enters and leaves the house in the night Lamastu, cast from the Heavens, crowned as a goddess Prey upon this living world, Drink and feed from the flesh of the living Scourge of Lamastu Kamadme, Spirit of Sumerian ruins Vampyric Goddess whose powers are many Lamastu, Labasu, Ahhazu, Seven times seven shadows Bibitum on northern winds you travel Saggastu! Female murderer, the roaming ghost, demoness! Vampyre who haunts the Steppe Hand of the Ghost of a Murderer (Qat Saggasi)! Samana, Jaws of a Lion Teeth of an Usumgal Claws of an Eagle Blood-dripping mouth of Ninisina 06. Gidim Hul (Bloodthirst Of The Demonic Dead)
Etemmu neglected in funerary rites,
The ghosts rise from their graves A blood meal to take souls for eternal life Haunting between the world of living and dead Anzagar, by nightmares! Ahhazu, seizing demon before me! Hajjatu-demons, we drink the blood Shulak, Lilitu, Rabisu! Gidim-hul, blood thirst of the dead Rabisu, hear me! Mimma Lemnu hear me! Sedu hear me! Utukku by Crossroads The grave transformed this ghost, growing thirsty for living blood Feed and prey upon mankind, drink their souls! Arali did not contain me, I rise from the tomb. Dust and darkness are my way, the winds of raven's flight Some have forgotten, hunger strikes and my spirit twists Etemmu thirst for blood, become as Udug-hul Gidim-hul, haunt and torment, Drink the soul dry, Blood be spilt, may the dead lap up the blood Gidim-hul, blood thirst of the dead Rabisu, hear me! Mimma Lemnu hear me! Sedu hear me! Utukku by Crossroads Pestilence and Plague powers of Namtar Nergal Lord of the Underworld We are of the Netherworld Inflict the living with disease Striking the mortal flesh with blood-shadows 07. Pazuzu King Of The Lilu-Demons
From Chaos is Order come to be,
The Winds haunt the earth Pazuzu, Son of Hanbu, King of the Lilu-Demons Ascend the mighty mountain By the winds towards the west, One by one I broke their wings, Parching winds I command Pazuzu, mighty one, ascending mountains who faces and subdues all winds Pazuzu, angry winds, Who's rising is terrible Fierce one, raging one, destroys the high mountains Howling at the world regions Pazuzu, parches the marshlands Withering the reeds Thou four-winged god of terrible radiance, Who teared down trees, passing through the Gardens, Withering the fruits fallen Pazuzu, descended to the living turning it to ice Breaking the bones of the men with joy Pazuzu, bestow protection upon that which I deem worthy, Ascend the mountains! |
