The Brave Daughters of Durin

Lyrics

Deep in the mountain where the forges flame, Hammer strikes echo, calling their name. In gleaming mail and beards of gold, Stand Durin’s daughters, brave and bold. With axes sharp and hearts of stone, They guard the halls where legends are grown. [Chorus] Oh, brave dwarf women, strong and true! Daughters of Durin, we sing to you! Through darkest mines and battles grim, You fight with fire in every limb! Khazad ai-mênu! Baruk Khazâd! The bearded sisters, forever steadfast! [Verse 2] When orcs crash loud against the gate, And dragon fire seals a deadly fate, They take up shields and raise their blades, No fear can break these warrior maids. They shield the young and the ancient hoard, Sing ancient songs with a mighty chord. [Chorus] Oh, brave dwarf women, strong and true! Daughters of Durin, we sing to you! Through darkest mines and battles grim, You fight with fire in every limb! Khazad ai-mênu! Baruk Khazâd! The bearded sisters, forever steadfast! [Verse 3] Men rarely sing of their hidden might, Yet in Erebor and Khazad-dûm’s light, Mothers and sisters, fierce and grand, Defend their realm with axe in hand. Queens of the deep, with iron will, Their courage burns and never still. [Bridge] When shadows rise and the world grows cold, When Barad-dûr unleashes its hold, Still they will stand, unbowed, unbent, Durin’s daughters — magnificent! [Final Chorus] Oh, brave dwarf women, strong and true! Daughters of Durin, we honor you! Through fire and stone, through blood and night, You are the mountain, the endless light! Khazad ai-mênu! Baruk Khazâd! The Daughters of Durin — undying, unbowed
