"Tibet is a land of timeless, infinite expanse. The highest region on the planet is a vast plateau, six times bigger than Western Europe...For centuries, it was known as a forbidden, inaccessible, and secretive realm, sequestered from the world by its altitude and bordered by an often impassible mountain range, the mightiest in the world."
[Jonathan Green, Murder in the High Himalaya]

 Earth met sky
 In a place yet unchanged by time
 Silence through heights can be heard
 As peace roams high

 Fortress of mist and peaks
 Nature gave to man contemplation
 Leading to divine inspiration

 Mystic land
 Sowed a seed of wisdom in man
 Leading one's mind to embrace
 A truthful life

 Fortress of mist and peaks
 Nature gave to man contemplation
 Leading to divine inspiration

 Tall
 Beyond clouds, they stand
 Ridges
 Where the world began

 Throughout summits reside
 Reclusive, hate-less minds
