King Of Gods

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
All the gods were stunned
By his splendid majesty
And so, they started praising

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

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
All the gods were stunned
By his splendid majesty
And so, they started praising
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

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

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
