Welcome to the valley of dust
welcome to the valley of mist
strolling over the barren lands
meet the hounds of lust.
Bear the torch of progress
forget the path of love
pave the way for the millenium
and shoot the pigeons and doves.
For this is the land of demons
where vutures prowl the sky
and man gropes for the holes
under the blazing sky.
But a man is there on the stride
who transcends the lanes of darkness
Expands the bounds of nature
and holds the suns of pride.
Prem Tenzine Negi(Tr.)
