I am a small mountain 

I am a small mountain. 

I don’t make the weather. 

I mind my own magic 

And keep my bliss together. 

I am a small mountain. 

Step by step is the way to get everywhere. 

And here. And when you do, 

I’ll greet you with breathable air 

And a breathtaking view. 

I am a small mountain. 

At the top you don’t have to look down 

To know you can aim even higher. 

I don’t stand to be conquered;

I rise to inspire. 

I am a small mountain. 

Wherever you go from here,

Whoever you meet and whatever you do,

You can take my blessings with you. 

I’ll be a guardian guide for you. 

I am a small mountain. 

Right place and right time is a welcome 

You offer your life without doubting. 

If you want to ( … ) your dreams,

Ask me how. 

I am a small mountain. 

Alexey Timbul (c) 2017
