We Were Warriors

From the grave The fires rekindle ancient swords The forge at last reignites To shine once more For the dwarves Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai, lai, lai-lai-lai-la Rise again Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai, lai, lai-lai-lai-la Raise your voices We're dwarves of the mountain, born of stone From the ground Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai, lai, lai-lai-lai-la Hear my call Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai, lai, lai-lai-lai-la Raise your voices We're dwarves of the mountain, born of stone May the day of my ascent Be the one that leads me to the final stand Taking my last breath I will serve your command May the axe held in my hand Be the cause of wounds against the ones who stand Here in front of me I serve and defend 'til my time on earth will end Once we were warriors Falling among the invader's lines Once we were lords of the mountain Until fate closed our eyes We are heading for a new home For a long sleeping desire Hear the voices of the fallen Sing their song into the darkest night From the roots that break the ground From the ashes lying on the bloodied mound Made of ruins and tales Where the fallen are bound Listen to the silent field Where torment was the calm will take their breath We will gather here At the end of our road Where the fallen fight no wars Dwarves, from the ground Raise your axes and hammers high You'll be renewed from the raw stone Of which our home is made Dwarves, from the ground Raise your axes and hammers high You'll be renewed from the raw stone Of which our home is made Warriors of caves and hills An army made of steel Will answer to the will Of a new dwarf king, the ironborn Forged in the heart of stone We are heading for a new home For a long sleeping desire Hear the voices of the fallen Sing their song into the darkest night Once we were warriors Falling among the invader's lines Once we were lords of the mountain Until fate closed our eyes We are heading for a new home For a long sleeping desire Hear the voices of the fallen Sing their song into the darkest night
