I am before all things
I receive the Moon by day and the Sun at night
I am the Ancient One
Woeful Guardian of the Gate
Grant us your protection
Before the cosmic leap
Righteous Keyholder of the Door
Blow our Super-Es, with the
Growl of sidereal winds
I am before all gods
I am before all days
I am before all men and legends of men
I am before Absu
I am before Nar Marratu
I am before Anu
I am before Kia
Mighty Guardian of the Gate
Give us your protection
Rightful Keyholder of the Door
Give us sidereal wings
To fly high above the floods of awareness
No man may seek my resting place
Before me was made nothing that was made
Woeful Guardian of the Gate
Grant us your protection
Before the cosmic leap
Righteous Keyholder of the Door
Blow our Super-Es, with the
Growl of sidereal winds
'Umr at-Tawil!
