Sarpanitum

Ascending the Divine

Sarpanitum


Almighty Tiamat, serpent goddess, 
Adorned resplendently in burning rage 
Harbinger of impious hordes, 

Her asperity sickens the grandest of divinity 

Bel of Babylon 
A deity to ascend the pantheon 
To slaughter the celestial abhorrence 
To yield dominance beyond imagination 

Through slaughter comes prosperity 
An age of abundant ataraxia 
Creation flows from the veins of Tiamat 
From victory comes supreme sovereignty 

Bel of Babylon 
A deity to ascend the pantheon 
To slaughter the celestial abhorrence 
To yield dominance beyond imagination 
To yield dominance beyond resurrection 

Through burning storm clouds and cascades of arrows 
The blood of Kingu was spilled 
The broken wreckage of the serpent's carcass 
Wept blood and viscera, from the carnage of flesh the earth arose 

Bel of Babylon 
A deity to ascend the pantheon 
To slaughter the celestial abhorrence 
To yield dominance beyond imagination 
To yield dominance beyond resurrection 

Through slaughter comes prosperity 
An age of abundant ataraxia 
Creation flows from the veins of Tiamat 
From victory comes supreme sovereignty 

Through burning storm clouds 
and cascades of arrows 
the blood of Kingu was spilled, 
The broken wreckage of the serpent's carcass 

Creation flows from the veins of Tiamat 
From victory comes supreme sovereignty
