lyrics

NERGAL, your name is Pestilence!
NERGAL, Vanquisher of Enemies,
NERGAL, Commander of Hosts, Remember!
NERGAL, Slayer of Lions and of Men, Remember!
In the Name of the Covenant sworn
between Thee and the Race of Men,
I call to Thee! Hearken and Remember!
From the Great Gate of the Lord SHAMMASH,
the Sphere of the Sun,
I call to Thee!
NERGAL, God of the Sacrifice of Blood, Remember!
NERGAL, Lord of the Offerings of Battle,
Ravager of the Enemy's Towns,
Devourer of the flesh of Man, Remember!
NERGAL, Wielder of the Mighty Sword, Remember!
NERGAL, Lord of Arms and Armies, Remember!
Spirit of the Glow of the Battlefield,
Open wide Thy Gate!
Spirit of the Entrance Unto Death,
Open Thy Gate to me!
Spirit of the Sailing Lance,
the Thrusting Sword,
the Flying Rock,
Open the Gate to Thy Sphere
to One who has no fear!
Gate of the Red Planet, Open!
Gate of the God of War, Swing Wide!
Gate of the God of Victory got in Battle, Open to me!
