With the rise of Orion in the skies The great planet comes forth Fastening through the ages To reach us and throw us in the dark The night of Nibiru lasts long And stars shrivelled behind its shadow With the flame inside us burning We shed wine and fruit on our way to Emmeshara With the rise of Orion in the skies The great planet comes forth Fastening through the ages To reach us and throw us in the dark There dwells our queen Ereshkigal Who had welcomed us in an enduring renewal For a swim in the ocean of the netherworlds Understanding comes upon our bright souls For a swim in the ocean of the netherworlds Understanding comes upon our bright souls With the flame inside us burning We shed wine and fruit on our way to Emmeshara
