Oh Ancient Mountains
1968
Oh ancient mountains,
mountains of Arcadia,
proud mountains,
intractable mountains,
honorable mountains.
Honor became dear,
honor became scarce,
honor is dead.
A child suffers, my child
and fettered, I look at the fir trees;
I have no other hope except the trees.
Arcadia I
