The Anvil |
England’s on the anvil — hear the hammers ring |
Clanging from the Severn to the Tyne |
Never was a blacksmith like our Norman King |
England’s being hammered into line |
England’s on the anvil — heavy are the blows |
Ordered by the tyrant bastard son |
Destiny has cursed us with the maker of our woes |
England’s being hammered into one |
Sorrow for the conquered, wretched is their doom |
Marshalled from the mountains to the shore |
Withered in the shadow of the ruthless victor horde |
Toiling in the silent throes of war |
England’s in the furnace, tempered by the flames |
Cast into a spiral of decline |
Grievous is the pounding in this iron-fisted forge |
England’s being fashioned by design |
'With bloody sword came he |
Cold heart and bloody hand |
Now rule the English land' |
— Heimskringla |
England’s on the anvil — hear those hammers ring |
Clanging from the Severn to the Tyne |
Never was a blacksmith like our Norman King |
England’s being hammered, hammered into line |
Glowing on the anvil, faithful sons awake |
Banish this usurper from the throne |
Furl his sacred standard tight fixed with dragon seal |
And send it with our blessings back to Rome |
