Nile - Defiling the Gates of Ishtar lyrics

[Nile - Defiling the Gates of Ishtar lyrics]

Impure am I
Impure I spill my seed upon barren earth
And spit in the faces of the Goddess
Unclean am I
Unclean I copulate with the hands of the God
And defile the Gates of Ishtar

Unblessed am I, unrepentant, defiant
Buh Luh Uh si il Inanna
As Gi Su Ak gis Tes
Gis Tes

Unwashed am I, unwashed I lay violent hands
Upon the altar of the Goddess
In filth I lay, in filth I desecrate
And profane the Temple of Ishtar
And blaspheme in the presence of whores

Baad Angarru ninnghizzhidda
Open the Gate that I may enter baad Angarru
Ninnghizzhidda open, lest I attack the gate
Baad Angarru ninnghizzhidda
Open the Gate
Lest I cause the dead to outnumber the living
Open the Gate, lest I cause the dead to
Rise and devour the living
