Translation
9 (With?) saliva of a dog, of thirst(?), of hunger(?),
10 (with?) a blow on the face, (with) “turning of eyes”,
11 I have hit your(m.) head, I have changed your(m.) mood.
12 Place your(m.) mind with my mind!
13 Place your(m.) decision with my decision!
14 I hold you(m.) back just like Ištar held back Dumuzi,
15 (Just like) Seraš binds her drinkers,
16 (so) I have bound you(m.) with my hairy mouth,
18 with my drooling mouth,
20 May the enemy-woman not come to you!
21 The dog is lying, the boar is lying –
22 you lie forever in between my thighs.
----
23 What is on the green fish will be thrown to the oil; it will be smeared.
----
24 Look at me and rejoice like a harp!
25 Like (through) Seraš may your heart be bright!
26 Shine on me regularly like Šamaš!
27 Renew (yourself) on me like Sîn!
28 ... and may your love be new!
----
29 [.... in? o]il to rub
----
30 May your(m.) two legs walk, Erra-bāni!
31 May your(m.) loins move!
32 May your ligaments follow!
33 May your(f.) heart rejoice!
34 May your(f.) mood be happy!
35 May I swell like a dog!
36 Your(f.) two curves are like a halter – do not throw (them away) from me!
----
37 Incantation of the lover.
