Constructing the Realms of Nebiru Songtext
von Eridu

He constructed stations for the great gods
The stars their images as the stars of the zodiac he fixed
He ordained the year and into sections he divided it
For the twelve months he fixed three stars Afterwards he founded the station of Nebiru
To determine their heavenly bands
That none might err or go astray

Alongside it he set up the stations for Enlil and Ea
Having opened up the gates on both sides
He strengthened the locks to the left and the right
In the midst thereof he fixed the zenith

The moon god he caused to shine forth the night he entrusted to him
He appointed him a being of the night to determine the days
