:: TIARZECATAR :: THE THIRTEEN SONGS ::
:: SEVENTH SONG :: ORSOSECATAR :: THE SONG OF NORTH AND SOUTH ::

This is another naming song. The three Xicartze, Ferreia, Adan and the hidden Yanuia name the realms of the Earthly Garden, and set themselves Daettan ('maintainers, cherishers') over each realm. The northern realm is named Orso. The northern stars are set in the Heavenly realm above Orso – these are named. Ferreia becomes the Woman of the North and takes the new name Imarzon. The southern realm is named Fersec. The southern stars are set in the Heavenly realm above Fersec – these are also named. Adan becomes the Man of the South and takes the new name Tibatlai ('Shivering Man', after the shivering heat haze of summer). The central realm is named Ebion. The sacred stars of the centre are set above Ebion and are named. Yanuia reappears and takes the new name Txacuir. The song finishes with an incantation naming all of Enoha, the Earthly Garden, as Ebion, navel – this has already been anticipated in previous songs.

io to luc, the deep-shining
Shimmer People separate the realms,
cherishers of Enoha, cherishers of Ebion,
the Shimmer People name the realms

we call upon the northern realm made visible,
the Heavenly Arc of Enoha, of Ebion,
the Shimmer People call upon the northern realm,
the winter dwelling-place of Enoha, of Ebion,
let us set ourselves as maintainers over you

we call upon the southern realm made visible,
the Underworld Arc of Enoha, of Ebion,
the Shimmer People call upon the southern realm,
the summer dwelling-place of Enoha, of Ebion,
let us set ourselves as maintainers over you

seeing that
the central realm is not yet visible
sensing that
the central realm is now made visible
we set ourselves as maintainers

Ferreia descends, alights from the shimmers,
sets her feet upon the northern realm,
Ferreia delights, emerges from the shimmers,
blesses her feet with the northern realm,
grants it the name of Orso

behold, the northern stars are beautifully set
in the skies above the Orso realm,
behold, the Northern Woman is beautifully set,
blesses herself with the name Imarzona,
Orso is made fertile with shimmers

Adan descends, alights from the shimmers,
sets his feet upon the southern realm,
Adan speaks, emerges from the shimmers,
rests his feet upon the southern realm,
grants it the name of Fersec

behold, the southern stars are beautifully set
in the skies above the Fersec realm,
behold, the Southern Man is beautifully set,
blesses himself with the name Tibatlai,
Fersec is made wondrous with shimmers

Yanuia appears, alights from the darklight,
sets hir feet upon the central realm,
Yanuia makes magic, emerges from the darklight,
dances his feet around the central realm,
grants it the name of Ebion

behold, the tropical stars are beautifully set
in the skies above the Ebion realm,
behold, the Navel Queer is beautifully set,
blesses hirself with the name Txacuir,
Ebion is made sacred with shimmers

seeing that the realms of Enoha have been blessed,
seeing that the realms of Ebion have been blessed,
all of Enoha is the Heart of Ebion,
the Earthly Garden upon the navel of Afer,
the Earthly Garden is perfected

and so we who are transformed,
blessed by the perfection
of the Heart of Ebion,
we, the Shimmer People,
here we sing and sing

here in the realm of the tropical stars,
shimmering delightfully,
the Heart of Ebion,
here we sing and sing
