Track: The Call of Mammitum

A song inspired by my teen urban fantasy novel series. (Lyrics by me, music by Suno.com)

This song sort of covers the crux of the story tying two chapters together. Mammitum first judge of the underworld (in my series at least, but she’s the only one that showed up for Gilgamesh so she got the job). More chanting in Akkadian. but it should be Sumerian. Full Playlist

The Call of Mammitum

[intro]

[whispered]
I hear your voices, when I close my eyes.
And for a minute you're there by my side.
I can see your smiling faces.
I wish you were really here.

[Verse][backing singers]
It's hard (so hard) here without you.
You could do this better than me.
Every day feels like a struggle.
I would trade places if I could!

[Pre-Chorus][chanting]
MAMITUM BELTUM ŠA MŪTI!
[Shouting] IQABBĪ!, IQABBĪ!
QIBĪTUM ŠA MAMITUM!
[Shouting] IQABBĪ!, IQABBĪ!

[chorus]
The whispers, I hear them. (Do you hear it?)
They're begging me. (She calls! She calls!)
I can hear their voices (You ache to undo it)
I'd do anything. ([Shouted] Use the power!)
[Powerful] I can see them again!

[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooooh

[Verse][backing singers]
It's hard (so hard) here without you.
I can see you. Is this even real?
I can see your smiling faces.
My beloved dead, your eyes are so cold.

[bridge][whispered]
This isn't real. These aren't the souls I loved. I have to wake up. I have to give them rest.

[Pre-Chorus][chanting]
MAMITUM BELTUM ŠA MŪTI
[Shouted] IQABBĪ!, IQABBĪ!
QIBĪTUM ŠA MAMITUM
[Shouted] IQABBĪ!, IQABBĪ!

[Chorus]
The whispers, I hear them. (Do you hear it?)
They're warning me (She calls! She calls!)
I hear their voices (You ache to undo it)
No, I won't do it. ([Shouted] Use the power!)
[Powerful] I refuse!

[Operatic Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooooh
