Me gusta esa montaña de ahí.
No quiero caminar en la montaña del viejo hombre.
No quiero dejar marcas en su cara.
No quiero que el humo se interponga en el camino del sol,
porque creo que a las montañas también les gusta el sol, como a mí.
No quiero hacer daño a esa montaña de ahí, porque esa montaña no me ha hecho daño a mí.
Además, no quiero que esa montaña esté enfadada por mí.
