Tracklist

• 1. Sun-God (04:00)
   copy

  Marduk the wisest, the sage of the gods
  Was born from the womb of the elder blood
  Goddesses reared him and filled him with force
  He grew up - impressive and tall
  
  Strong was his body and strong was his mind
  His power was truly remarkable
  Four pair of eyes, also four pair of ears
  And fire shot forth from his mouth
  
  Praised by the younger gods
  Praised for his temper
  
  You’re the greatest of all
  You are all of the great
  You’re the great lord of cardinal winds
  
  You’re a son of the gods
  You’re a god of the sun
  You’re the Sun-god - the mari-utu
  
  Marduk created a great heavy storm
  And woke up the old mother Tiamat
  Badly disturbed by the violent waves
  She flew into terrible rage
  
  Cursed by the ancient gods
  Cursed for his temper

  [Verse 1]
  After the glorious battle
  Where Marduk destroyed Tiamat
  He split her body into several parts
  And created Earth and Heaven
  Next came celestial bodies
  The sun and the moon and the stars
  All he designed in an everlasting circle of the year
  
  [Pre-Chorus]
  All the gods were stunned
  By his splendid majesty
  And so they started praising
  
  [Chorus]
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Marduk the creator
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  No one will bе greater
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Reinforcе and guide us
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Praise the new and holy king
  
  [Verse 2]
  "Bring me this devilish traitor
  Qingu will pay for his deeds
  Out of his blood we'll create the first men
  To impose on them our burden"
  After creation of mankind
  Marduk took rest from his work
  He settled down in his "Esagil" in holy Babylon
  [Pre-Chorus]
  All the gods were stunned
  By his splendid majesty
  And so they started praising
  
  [Chorus]
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Marduk the creator
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  No one will be greater
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Reinforce and guide us
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Praise the new and holy king
  
  [Bridge]
  These were the tales
  These were the tales of Marduk's rise
  And how he built his great kingdom
  Spread all the tales
  Spread all the tales into the world
  Spread all the tales until the end of time
  
  [Chorus]
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Marduk the creator
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  No one will be greater
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Reinforce and guide us
  Hail, hail, king of gods
  Praise the new and holy king
• 3. Aeon Gods (05:23)
   copy

  In a time without a name, long before mankind
  There happened a great battle of the gods
  Marduk and his followers they were well prepared
  To fight against the army of Tiamat
  
  AEON GODS
  
  Marduk ruled the elements - weapons of a god
  His seven winds created a great storm
  He assembled all his troops - ready to attack
  And marched against the evil Tiamat
  
  When she saw it coming - an army of the gods
  She cursed her crawling counsellors in anger
  
  When the battle troops unite
  At early morning light
  We raise our golden banners
  And stand up for the fight
  See the lightning in the sky
  Hear the thunder of the storm
  Cause we fight as AEON GODS
  
  The campaign went back and forth - no one could prevail
  So, the final fight was imminent
  Marduk blew the Evil Wind straight against Tiamat
  And killed her with an arrow through her heart
  
  The enemies surrendered and begged to save their lives
  The victory of Marduk raised his glory

  "My holy powers lost their might
  I need to rest for a hundred nights"
  So Marduk called for a fair deputy
  And Erra offered to assume control
  
  [Verse 2]
  "Let me take over all your reign
  I will take care of your domain"
  The god of war betrayed the king of gods
  And turned against the holy Babylon

  Burning, all is burning
  Fire and chaos around
  Burning, all is burning
  Babylon blazed to the ground
  
  [Verse 3]
  "Hundreds of years I have lived in peace
  Now I am thirsty for blood
  I will not spare humankind
  And devastate each of their kind"
  Ereshkigal tried to calm Erra's rage
  But she could not prevent thе god from
  [Chorus]
  Burning, all is burning
  Fire and chaos around
  Burning, all is burning
  Babylon blazed to the ground
  
  [Bridge]
  "Blind with ragе, I killed them all
  The good and bad alike
  I realize the misery
  That caused my raging strike"

  Burning, all was burning
  Bright is the future ahead
  Burning, all was burning
  Babylon rose from the dead
• 5. Enlil's Commands (The Flood Pt. I) (05:30)

  [Verse 1]
  Centuries after mankind came to light
  Countless man filled the earth
  Enlil the high god grew restless at night
  And his temper turned into anger
  
  [Verse 2]
  The noise of mankind has disrupted my sleep
  Why have they grown so large?
  Humans are nothing but clamorous sheep
  We will end their insane existence
  
  [Chorus]
  A solution is close at hand
  It is mine to restore our order
  I will give you one last command
  To annihilate all mankind
  
  [Verse 3]
  First, I will hold back the annual rain
  And dry out their fertile land
  Once all the humans are starving in pain
  I will send out a mortal fever
  
  [Chorus]
  A solution is close at hand
  It is mine to restore our order
  I will give you one last command
  To annihilate all mankind
  [Bridge]
  Resistant was the human blood
  Towards the relentless deadly plagues
  (Enlil, mercy, mercy)
  (Enlil, save us all)
  Finally, I'll create a flood
  To bring back peace for our sake
  
  [Chorus]
  A solution is close at hand
  It is mine to restore our order
  I will give you one last command
  To annihilate all mankind
• 6. Nintu's Lament (The Flood Pt. II) (04:13)
   copy

  [Verse 1]
  Darkness hid the daylight when the flood began
  Meant to seal the fate of every man
  All the gods were frightened by the awful doom
  So they ran for shelter in the Goddess' womb
  
  [Pre-Chorus]
  In Nintu's eyes
  All sorrow lies
  And endless pain
  
  [Chorus]
  When the daylight awakened
  All my children had died
  Washed away by the flood, I am stained by their blood
  I can't stop to weep and to cry
  
  [Verse 2]
  How could our hearts turn into solid stone?
  Now we have to bear the blame all alone
  How can I continue when my tears have dried?
  Walk around the wasteland where my children died?
  
  [Pre-Chorus]
  What have I done?
  There is no one
  To end this pain
  [Chorus]
  When the daylight awakened
  All my children had died
  Washed away by the flood, I am stained by their blood
  I can't stop to weep and to cry
  
  [Bridge]
  I am bound to their fate
  I will carry this weight
  In the name of the fallen ones
  
  [Chorus]
  When the daylight awakened
  All my children had died
  Washed away by the flood, I am stained by their blood
  I can't stop to weep and to cry
  
  [Outro]
  After days of deep mourning
  A big ark came in sight
  They survived the great flood
  And preserved human blood
  There is hope
  The hope for a new life

  [Verse 1]
  In the blink of an eye
  He sentenced to die
  The whole mankind
  But I will not support Enlil's command
  My loyal servants, be aware
  
  [Chorus]
  And so the water's rising higher
  All living beings are left behind
  The human fate is lost and dire
  But I will save the humankind
  
  [Verse 2]
  Go and build a great boat
  To save all your kin
  And all living things
  Be prepared for the flood to last seven days
  Until you'll reach your future home
  
  [Chorus]
  And so the water's rising higher
  All living beings are left bеhind
  The human fate is lost and dire
  But I will savе the humankind
  [Bridge]
  Enlil, calm down, I have a plan
  To limit man's existence
  Mortality and deadly disease
  Will be humans' fate henceforth
  
  [Outro]
  The waters stopped rising higher
  All can return into their place
  The human fate was lost and dire
  But has been saved by Enki's grace
  The waters stopped rising higher
  Enki has saved the humankind
  This is the covenant between the gods and men

  Once the goddess Ishtar went to the underworld
  And entered the dark kingdom of her sister

  But she failed and was enslaved

  "Pride goes right before the fall
  Now you have to face it all
  You will not escape my deadly kingdom"

  Take her down, take her down
  Take her down to my land of the darkness
  Take her down, take her down
  Take her down to eternal damnation
  Take her down

  In Ishtar's longer absence fertility decreased
  And so the gods gave order to release her
  But the law required to send a deputy
  So they choose the god Tammuz

  "Queen and goddess of the dead
  Hear my plea, take me instead"
  Desperate words of his beloved sister

  Take me down to the land of the darkness
  Take me down, take me down
  Take me down to eternal damnation
  Take me down

  Take him down (No)
  Take her down (No)
  Take both down to the land of the darkness
  Take 'em down (Yeah)
  Take 'em down (Yeah)
  Take 'em down to eternal damnation
  
  [Chorus]
  Take 'em down, take 'em down
  Take 'em down to the land of the darkness
  Take 'em down, take 'em down
  Alternating the time of damnation
  Take 'em down

  Ooh, yeah

  [Verse 1]
  In times of the dawn the council of gods
  Had named the lord of the cosmos
  An item was made for Enlil's command
  To bring unlimited force

  Anzu the demon storm-bird was born
  With wings and the head of a lion
  Engaged to protect the lord of the gods
  He snatched the Tablet of Destinies
  
  [Chorus]
  By the hands of a betrayer
  Enlil lost his sacred gift
  Who will be the demon slayer
  And return the Tablet of Destinies?
  
  [Verse 3]
  Several gods refused to attack
  The mighty invinciblе Anzu
  So they beseeched thе mother of gods
  To bear a powerful hero-god
  
  [Chorus]
  By the hands of a betrayer
  Enlil lost his sacred gift
  Who will be the demon slayer
  And return the Tablet of Destinies?
  [Bridge]
  In wild destructive battle
  No one had gained control
  But finally, Ninurta
  Could kill the Anzu bird
  
  [Chorus]
  By the hands of a betrayer
  Enlil lost his sacred gift
  But Ninurta was the slayer
  And returned the Tablet of Destinies
