Lyrics - A Magician's Lapis-lazuli by Absu

He gave me the noble, enduring crown.
He gave me the high throne of kingship.
He gave me the imperial, regal sceptre.
He gave me the laws of the realm.
He gave me the facts of the
Kurgarra.
He gave me descend in this undersphere.
He gave me the dagger; he gave me the sword.
He gave me the staff and unphallic wand.
He gave me concern.
He gave me dismay.
He gave me consternation.
He gave me the art of this song.
He gave me procreation.
Dumuzi!
A magician's lapis-lazuli gleams in
Urik, descending to my undersphere.
A magician's lapis-lazuli reflects onto the
Temples of
Offal.
A magician's lapis-lazuli excels in
Ur, descending to their underworld.is placed on
Shugurra, the crown of the
Steppe.
He gave me the craft of the spell; he gave me determination.
He gave me the craft of a charm; he gave me an invocation.
He gave me wine of
Geshtinanna; he gave me determination.
He gave me oracles of the lil; he gave me half a year.
He gave me a sail on an
Anzu-
Bird; he gave me notes of thunder.
He gave me the feathers from it's wing; he gave me regalement.
He gave me a mark of the fiend; he gave me roots from the
Huluppu-
Tree;
He gave me travel of the
Apzu; he gave me the
Lapis-
Lazuli.
A
Magician's
Lapis-
Lazuli!
