Hymn To The Ancient Ones


They are lying down, the Great Old Ones
The bolts are fallen and the fastenings are placed
The crowds are quiet and the people are quiet
The Elder Gods of the Land
The Elder Goddesses of the Land
SHAMMASH
SIN
ADAD
ISHTAR
Have gone to sleep in heaven
They are not pronouncing judgements
They are no deciding decisions
Veiled is the Night
The Temple and the Most Holy Places are quiet and dark
The Judge of Truth
The Father of the Fatherless
SHAMMASH
Has gone to his chamber
O Ancient Ones!
Gods of the Night!
AZABUA!
IAK SAKKAK!
KUTULU!
NINNGHIZHIDDA!
O Bright One, GIBIL!
O Warrior, IRRA!
Seven Stars of Seven Powers!
Ever-Shining Star of the North!
SIRIUS!
DRACONIS!
CAPRICORNUS!
Stand by and accept
This sacrifice I offer
May it be acceptable
To the Most Ancient Gods!
IA MASHMASHTI! KAKAMMU SELAH!
