Nirah (DN) | shining | underground water | to split |
The shining roof-beam nails hammered into the house are dragons gripping a victim. The shining ropes attached to the doors are holy Nirah parting the abzu. Its …… is pure like Kec and Aratta, its …… is a fierce lion keeping an eye on the Land; nobody going alone can pass in front of it. |
