Ce texte datant de la IIIè Dynastie d'Ur raconte le voyage du dieu de cette cité, Nanna/Sîn (le dieu-lune). Il décide donc de partir d'Ur, pour rendre visite à son père Enlil et à sa mère Ninlil dans leur cité, Nippur. Il se fait construire un somptueux bateau, le charge de présents destinés à ses parents, puis il embarque. Il est successivement arrêté à Enegi, Larsa, Uruk, Shuruppak et Tummal, où les trésors qu'il transporte attisent la convoitise des sanctuaires locaux, mais il continue son chemin jusqu'à Nippur. Arrivé là, il entre dans le temple de son père, l'Ekur, et lui fait ses offrandes. Son père, heureux de cette visite et de ces présents, invite alors son fils à un grand banquet.
Nanna profite de l'occasion pour remercier son père de ses bienfaits, et lui demander de faire des bienfaits pour sa ville, Ur. Enlil ne peut qu'accepter, et accorde à Ur la prospérité. On voit bien que ce texte a aussi des visées politiques, puisqu'il montre qu'Ur est une ville aimée des dieux, et que donc ses rois sont biens ceux qui doivent dominer la Mésopotamie.
