I yearn to see what there's on the other side
even though there's nothing to see
It's appealing from far beyond the mountain
It was rocky, marshy
thorny on the way
A raindrop fell on my face
At the awakening
I saw a light streaming through the thorny trees
so found myself under a spell of the still unknown world
I yearn to see what there's on the other side
even though there's nothing to see
It's appealing from far beyond the mountain
With love, with forgetting
with anger on the way
A cold wind bit my cheeks
At the awakening
I saw brightness in the stillness of night
so found myself under a spell of the still unknown world
The end of the here abuts
on the hereafter
The walking continues
toward that mountain line
I yearn to see what there's on the other side
even though there's nothing to see
It's appealing from far beyond the mountain
