To reach the queen of the hill
Who keeps kicking, but
I'll climb a hundred times more,
That hill is calling me home

As from the wilting touch of a hundred hands
Its fragrance, festered flows.

A promise of a hundred years

Will follow till the end 
Of time.

Painted with blood and tears
Glass slippers, a ball
