Who among men
Will face the last frontier
Why do mountains
Always feel so strong
Gallantly they stand
Some times, they send
Moley hills, in cloaked illusions
To do their bids
But yet, have no ordersity to move
They seat in silence, dormant silence
Unless triggered by larva eruption
Yet for the height they hold
The strength required
To set foot on their summit patch
Makes them deciders
Of men, apart
The pomposity they weld
Who among men, is man enough
To conquer the mountain stand
This here is the last frontier of man
Before accomplished delight
Who among men, is man enough
To set foot on summit patch
