| Who inhabiteth the Mountain | B |
| That it shines in lurid light | C |
| And is rolled about with thunders | D |
| And terrors and a blight | C |
| Like Kaf the peak of Eblis | D |
| Kaf the evil height | C |
| Who has gone up with a shouting | E |
| And a trumpet in the night | C |
| - | |
| There is battle in the Mountain | B |
| Might assaulteth Might | C |
| 'Tis the fastness of the Anarch | F |
| Torrent torn an ancient height | C |
| The crags resound the clangor | A |
| Of the war of Wrong and Right | C |
| And the armies in the valley | G |
| Watch and pray for dawning light | C |
| - | |
| Joy Joy the day is breaking | E |
| And the cloud is rolled from sight | C |
| There is triumph in the Morning | E |
| For the Anarch's plunging flight | C |
| God has glorified the Mountain | B |
| Where a Banner burneth bright | C |
| And the armies in the valley | G |
| They are fortified in right | C |
