The Mountain Pass


 

Victory or dishonor? 

what will it be when I am discovered?

With sword in hand and horse in toe,

through the mountain pass I go.

 

To save my father was the plan;

But now I have to save my land,

I will do anything to destroy the enemies plan.

through the mountain pass I go

 

Hair cut and breast bound;

 I am the only hope for the emperor now.

With A cricket for luck and a dragon at hand,

Through the mountain pass I go.

 

A woman I may be but a warrior still,

To protect my nation is my will,

With my friends beside and my worries behind me;

Through the mountain pass I go.
