[Verse 1]
I went up on the mountain side
To see what I could see
To see what I could be
On the shining mountain

[Verse 2]
I watched the day go down in fire
And sink in the valley
And sink into the sea
Drown in golden fire

[Verse 3]
Fireflies danced in the forest night
The trees began to sing
The crags began to sing
Above the black forest

[Verse 4]
I went up on the mountain side
To know what I did know
To know whence I did know
On the crowning mountain
