In a time, when blood was spilled on the earth
Shigdurrah, the mother of all dragons gave birth
To her son, the king of dragons to come
And a kingdom to rule with power so strong...
His mother died early so he had to learn
How to fly, to fight, to kill and to burn
His enemies - human moths who destroy natures robe
While for his land he was the symbol of hope
His only aim was the freedom of his land
But his vision of his too soon got out of hand
Aware now of his powers and his invincible might
He started killing creatures, no matter of wrong or right
Dweorgesblod - the blood of dwarves who died
by the dragon's power
Dweorgesblod - the blood of dwarves who died
in the dragon's fire
Then the dragon fell into deep sleep
A cold december covered the scars of the land, the
dead humans and also the few dwarves and animals who
had survived the battle...
Earth and snow turned from red to white, while the dwarves
gathered deep beneath the surface in their tunnels,
to warm up their hearts, to remember the dead and
to forge plans, how to defeat the dragon.
Should he be slain, caught or suffer to death?
And how to fight his firelike breath?
A worm like mountains, crystal and high,
with wings like two forests, to awake storms and to fly...
Long was the frost, but it could not freeze their legends!
Legends of dragons, cruising the air with joy and pride!
The dragons of the seasons delight...
Their magic, their colours, their inspiring flight!
Thus they besieged him and spellbound him with his
Mother's heart... half-drawn in blood and half in tears.
They took away his sad and broken heart, and replaced it
With Shigdurrah's, a heartlike rubin...
So red and bright and full of life as
Dweorgesblod - the blood of dwarves who died
in the dragon's fire
