Endurance of the mind

Left behind is the comfort of plains
Ahead a harsh way to follow
Reversing course of rivers and springs
Until the top of mountains the grove of learning

Overcome the holes in this permeable shell
Vulnerable to the edging bites of swords

Prepare to cope with an unforgiving reality
Carry a stoic heart whenever needed
Find balance in suffocating mayhem
Focus on its weakest point

Brave warrior, ready to face death for our cause
Reason! This illogic primitive emotions
Replenish a rational mind
Primordial fear? Jettison that fear!

Lips broken in cold, immersed in blood
Skin turns dark as it pads impact
Gritting teeth gets a compass musical
A tested mind!

Left behind is the comfort of the plains
Ahead a harsh way to follow
Reversing course of rivers and springs
Until the top of mountain - the grove of learning

Prepare to cope with an unforgiving reality
Carry a stoic heart whenever needed
Find balance in suffocating mayhem
Focus on its weakest point

Brave warrior, ready to face death for our clause
Reason! This illogic primitive emotions
Replenish a rational mind
Primordial fear? Jettison that fear!
