Knight Errant - Requiem for Enkidu lyrics

Artist: Knight Errant

album: Divan


"O my brother, what a dream I saw last night!
Anu, Ellil, Ea, and heavenly Shamash were in the assembly
And Ea said to Ellil
'As they have slain the bull of heaven
So too they have slain Huwawa, who guarded the mountains planted with pines'
And Anu said, "One of them must die" -Pain!- Ellil replied
"Let Enkidu die, but let Gilgamesh not die"
Turn to me, you!
You aren't listening to me!
But he cannot lift his head
I touch his heart, but it does not beat at all
Turn to me, you!
You aren't listening to me!
But he cannot lift his head
I touch his heart, but it does not beat at all
Bear, hyena, leopard, tiger
Stag, cheetah, lion, mountain goat
And other wild beasts shall weep for you
Now, what is the sleep
That has taken hold of you?
Turn to me, Enkidu!
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
Shall weep for you!
Bear, hyena, leopard, tiger
Stag, cheetah, lion, mountain goat
And other wild beasts shall weep for you
Now, what is the sleep
That has taken hold of you?
Turn to me, Enkidu!
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
Shall weep for you!
Bear, hyena, leopard, tiger
Stag, cheetah, lion, mountain goat
And other wild beasts shall weep for you
Now, what is the sleep
That has taken hold of you?
Turn to me, Enkidu!
The pure Euphrates
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
Shall weep for you!
Shall weep for you!
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
The pure Euphrates
And young men of the broad city
Of Uruk the sheepfold
Who watched the fighting
When we struck down
The bull of heaven
Shall weep for you!
Shall weep for you!
