Lugalbanda and the Anzud bird

By midnight, but before they had brought the offering-table to holy Inana, he set foot joyfully in brick-built Kulaba. His lady, holy Inana, sat there on her cushion. He bowed and prostrated himself on the ground. With (1 ms. adds:) joyful eyes Inana looked at holy Lugalbanda as she would look at the shepherd Ama-ušumgal-ana. In a (1 ms. adds:) joyful voice, Inana spoke to holy Lugalbanda as she would speak to her son Lord Šara: "Come now, my Lugalbanda, why do you bring news from the city? How have you come here alone from Aratta?"
