The Epic Of Gilgamesh
Ud rēa, ud sura rēa
Ngi rēa, ngi bara rēa
Mu rēa mu sura rēa
Ud ul ningduē pa ēaba
Ud ul ningduē mi zid duggaaba
Eš kalammaka ninda šuaba
Imšurinna kalammaka ningtab akaba
An kita badabaraaba
Ki anta badasuraaba
Mu namluulu baangaraaba

English Translation:

In those days, in those distant days
In those nights, in those ancient nights
In those years, in those distant years
In those ancient days all things had been created
In ancient time when all things were given their place
When bread was first tasted in the sacred shrines of the land
When the ovens had been lighted
When the heavens had been separated from the earth
When the earth had been separated from the heavens
When mankind had been established
