To Be a Dwarf Songtext
von Wind Rose

Beneath the mountain′s ancient brow
The caverns deep echoing now
We're beating the iron, we′re breaking the stone
In holes of rock we are forging our home
The hammers dance, the forges sing
With ores and jewels on golden rings
With magical power, as lineage commands
We're smithing our fame with the skill of our hands
With axes sharp and shields so strong
We guard our realm where we belong
An oath made of iron, a race made of stone
I'll honor the blood of my brothers until I die


Die! If I have to I′ll die
Die! The brotherhood will fight
Fight! I′m meant to be a dwarf
Till the moment that I die
Die! If have to I'll die
Die! The brotherhood will fight
Fight! I′m meant to be a dwarf
The promise of all

I will be the fire of the morning light (I swear!)
I will be the white of the mountain high (I swear!)
I will be the hammer beating on the anvil
To be a dwarf, it's an oath we swearing us all
Fire of the morning light (I swear!)
I will be the white of the mountain high (I swear!)
I will be the hammer beating on the anvil
To be a dwarf, it′s an oath that will be forevermore

Around the hearth, when day is gone
We share our tales, with ale and fun
Surrounding the fire, in tunnels so deep
In halls of rocks, our oaths we keep
Our battles fierce, our brothers gone
Their memories live in our song
When hammering sounds, our voices will rise
These stories will guide us as torches into the night


To be an dwarf, an oath that surrounds me
Like a storm whitens the mountain
Like a fire scorches the stone
To be a dwarf, an oath that surrounds me
As a legend yet untold
(As a legend yet untold!)

Die! If have to I'll die
Die! The brotherhood will fight
Fight! I′m meant to be a dwarf
The promise of all

I will be the fire of the morning light (I swear!)
I will be the white of the mountain high (I swear!)
I will be the hammer beating on the anvil
To be a dwarf, it's an oath we swearing us all
Fire of the morning light (I swear!)
I will be the white of the mountain high (I swear!)
I will be the hammer beating on the anvil
To be a dwarf, it's an oath that will be forevermore

Like a storm whitens the mountain
Like a fire scorches the stone
To be a dwarf, an oath that surrounds me
As a legend yet untold
Yet untold!
