Lyrics When the Hammer Falls - Clamavi De Profundis

When the Hammer Falls

Down in the deep
Where the dragon used to sleep
Glorious gold
Glimmers in our home of old
Dark as the night
Where the day has lost its light
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls
And it sounds through the halls
When the hammer falls
Freeing treasures from the walls
When the hammer strikes
And the kingdom comes to life
When the hammer pounds
Like the thunder underground
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls!
Of legend and myth
Is the craft of the smith
The molten metal poured
And pounded into sword
From the fire is made
Every Dwarven axe and blade
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls
Forging weapons for all
When the hammer falls
Songs of battle fill the halls
When the hammer flies
Lines of armored Dwarves arise
With the hammer’s roar
We go marching off to war!
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls!
The orcs came to our land
And we fought them hand to hand
Sweat and blood
Turned the ground to mud
Dwarf and Orc in strife
Sought to vanquish every life
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls
Back our enemy crawls
When the hammer quakes
Orcish cowards' bones will break
When the hammer cracks
And it beats their armies back
When the hammer’s boom
Sends the monsters to their doom
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls!
When the hammer falls
Then our victory calls
When the hammer falls
Songs of glory fill the halls
When the hammer flies
Mighty heroes now arise
With the hammer’s sound
Live the Dwarves down underground
When the hammer falls
When the hammer falls!
