the moutains stand and stare around，
they are far too proud to speak，
altho'they are rooted in the ground
up they go，peak after peak，
before the tallest house，and still
soaring over tree and hill
until you'd think they'd never sTOP
going up，TOP over TOP，
into the cloudsstill i mark
that a sparrow pr a lark1
flying just as high can sing
as if he'd not done anything.
i think the mountains ought to be
taught a little modesty2.
山岳巍然，雄视八荒，
气象庄严，无声无响，
植根大地，负势竟上。
洪涛排空，群峰低昂，
超越宫殿，凌彼森岗，
高入云表，争霸争王，
不思举止，徒逞豪强。
我观云鸟，载翱载翔，
飞抵上苍，尽情歌唱，
自由自在，毫不夸张。
告彼山岳，宜稍谦让，
戒骄戒躁，好自思量。
