Get Enki at I-Roots Records: https://iroots.bandcamp.com/album/enki

Oh now, oh now
Lapiz lazuli on the crown
Oh that great mountain, beloved by Holy An, King
Mes tree was planted, in the Abzu over the land
Great dragon dwells in Eridug whose shadow cover the sand
A grove of vines extending over forest like the reed named Halhal

Oh Enki, Lord of Plenty, never empty firstborn of An
Mighty one of Ekur know as tikur
In the Abzu you Stand
Ekur, more like Tikur yeah
In Abzu you stand

With a single glance
Unsettling the heart of the mountains
Wherever bison born, where stags are born, were ibex born, wild goats born
Over green meadows in the hollows in the heart of the green hills
Unvisited by man, your fixed gaze upon the heart of the land

Lord of Prosperity, Lord of Wisdom Beloved of An
Ornament of Eridug, establishing decisions and commands
You close up the days and make the months enter their house
You bring down the rain and turn weapons away from our house
You brought the arts and crafts from Ekur, house of Enlil
To Abzu in Eridug
Overseeing justice
Like a great storm too
Seal Keeper of Truth
Sacred song and incantations sound for you
In My Abzu, stag of the abzue
Nijir-sig holds the golden scepter for you
Let the Dilmun be loaded with timber for you
Let the Magan boats be loaded with silver for you
And the boats of Meluha with gold for you

Enki is the 2nd single from the Fikir Amlak & King Alpha album focused on Sumerian history & culture.

Sumer is one of the cradles of civilization of the world, dating back as far as 5500 BC. It's one the earliest known civilizations, located in the southernmost part of Mesopotamia, between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, in the area that later became Babylonia and is now southern Iraq.

Enki is the Sumerian god of water, knowledge, wisdom, magic and creation, as well as one of the Anunnaki. Enki, sometimes depicted as a man covered with the skin of a fish is considered the master shaper of the world.
