In the bowels of rocky mountain   A fiery bird I forged   Forged from iron, from molten steel   A flaming eagle, majestic beast      On the wings of my eagle   To black river I flew   To the dale of the dead   To the stream that grinds all flesh      The eagle soared sky high   Touched the vault of heaven   The sky sparkled, cracked and creaked      The eagle soared sky high   Soared my flaming griffin   The thunder crashed and rolled   Rolled the monster’s head      I found a monster, a black giant pike   From its jaws my eagle saved me   Dragged the fish under the sun   Split its belly, ripped the head off      I rolled the pike’s head to the house of the north   I threw the bony skull at the haughty queen:   Here’s a throne for you to rest your frozen bones   I have done my share, now keep your promise!      I had made the heavens, forged out a miracle   The snake-infested field of death turned over   Slayed the wolf of shadow lands   Shackled the bear of death   I captured the impossible   The pike from the black river
