Lyrics

Babylonian[1]

lū šalmāt ibrī ša libbiya
kabit-ma napīška salmu
inattalā īnāka andātika
luddinku
danāī

lū šalmāt ibrī ša libbiya
šukšudat qātī-ma
ilūta hašhat
luddinku
rāmī

lū šalmāt ibrī ša libbiya
ina kibsī mātika
ištēnis nemme
luddinku
balātī

English[2]

Be well, O Friend of my heart
Your peaceful breath is difficult,
Your eyes gaze upon your world.
I will give to you
My strength

Be well, O Friend of my heart
My hand reaches forth.
Striving for divinity.
I will give to you
My love

Be well, O Friend of my heart
At the steps of your land,
We become one.
I will give to you
My life
