My father gave me Heaven, gave me earth
I the Queen of Heaven am I
Is there one God who can vie with me?
Enlil gave me Heaven, gave me earth
I the Queen of Heaven am I.
He has given me lordship
He has given me queenship
He has given me battle, given me combat
And he gave me flood and tempest.
He has placed Heaven as a crown
He has tied the earth as a sandal
He has fastened the holy me garment
About my body.
The Gods are my vassals
I, a Queen am I
The Anuna scurry about.
I, a life-giving wild cow am I
The life-giving wild cow of father Enlil am I
His life-giving wild cow that walks at the head.
When I enter the Ekur, the house of Enlil
The gate-keeper puts not his hand against my
Breast
The vizier says not to me: stop!
Heaven is mine, earth is mine.
In Erech, the Eanna is mine
In Zabalom, the Giguna is mine.
In Nippur, the Duranki is mine
In Ur, the Edilman is mine.
In Girsu the Eshdam is mine
In Adab, the Emdara is mine.
In Kish, the Hursag Kalama is mine
In Dev, the Amashkuga is mine.
In Akshak, the Anzaka is mine
In Agada, the Ulmash is mine.
Is there one god who can vie with me?
