I groped and struggled,
against the mist,
to get to the mountain's peak.
She was standing there,
as slender as the waving grass,
but firm and sure,
happy that I succeeded;
smiling at me.
proud and happy.
At last,
I found her,
And won her love.
She is mine. . .
proud and haughty,
with all her beauty,
only mine.
The reward I got,
after scaling the mountain,
at the great height,
that I found.
