Does the road wind uphill all the way?
Yes, to the very (nd
Will the day’s journey take the whole long day?
From morn to night, my friend
Hut is there for the night a resting place?
A roof for when the slow, dark hours begin,
May not the darkness hide it from my face?
You cannot miss that inn
Shall I meet other wayfarers at night?
Those who have gone before
Then must I knock or call when just in sight?
They will not keep you waiting at the door
Shall I find comfort, travel sore an weak?
Of labor you shall find the aum
Will there be beds for me and all who seek?
Yeu, beds for all who come
