TAKE ME TO THE HILLS




Take me to the hills,
to the burning steep mounds,
to the highest one first,
where the strongest wind sounds,
and leave me in the cold
to my awesome quest;
let me start in the hills
when I’m at my best.
Let me totter on the brink
and find the down-hill,
when the quest is young
and youthful my will.
For then I shall work
my way to the seas.
To start with the hard
makes ending an ease.
