Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEF FGHIJJ KLMFNB OPQRFS JOTUVWX FOYZFFThe colourful light of sunset drops out of sight | A |
And the dull shade of night fills the sky | B |
This is my last walk through the rocky paths | C |
My eyes will gaze at the fruitful valley below | D |
I shall sit on top of the white gravestone | E |
And I shall have silent moments of meditation | F |
- | |
My heart is well at home here on the mountain | F |
I stare in awe at the magnificent heavens | G |
And I feel so close to Jehovah the source of life | H |
The thin cool air is flowing through my lungs | I |
While I am humming a sacred melody | J |
I tell the distant stars in the black space my story | J |
- | |
On the crest of the mount I find contentment | K |
I stretch out my hands towards the celestial bodies | L |
And it appears that I am touching the full moon | M |
I treasure my last few hours alone on the mountain | F |
My soul delights in the quiet surroundings | N |
This is where I sincerely want to live and die | B |
- | |
Daybreak will bring sadness to my heart | O |
My good spirit will end when the sun rises | P |
Tomorrow I must go back to an inconvenient place | Q |
Noisy contentious people await me there | R |
I pray that I may stay here on the mountain | F |
Oh Lord let me live among the flora and fauna | S |
- | |
Though my eyes are getting weary | J |
I must not fall asleep and lose the tranquillity | O |
The crack of dawn will soon appear | T |
And my paradise will not exist anymore | U |
I shall miss the songs of the crickets | V |
The twinkling bioluminescence of the fireflies | W |
And the frequent hooting of the owls | X |
- | |
How I treasure my last night on the mountain | F |
The rural terrain pleases me more than the city | O |
But I shall never set foot on this land again | Y |
This is my last night free from pain and stress | Z |
My last night of solitude and satisfaction | F |
And my last night of peaceful rest on the mountain | F |
