A story is told, that in Asgard of old,

Was a hammer of great might

By the furnace light in the depth of night

They cast an ingot bold.



Can you hear the hammerhead in the wind

Can you hear the hammerhead in the wind



They hammered and wrought and the rune spell caught

And engraved upon its shaft,

With a head of steel beneath which all men would kneel,

And would lay down the sword, at last.



Can you hear the hammerhead in the wind

Can you hear the hammerhead in the wind

They laid on the anvil, a steel cold bar,

Needed no fire nor file

But their sledgehammers following, like thunder rolled

And Sindre, sang runes by the fire.



Can you hear the hammerhead in the wind

Can you hear the hammerhead in the wind
