Borrowing a horse, Seth was moving at a fast pace.
Liam, with his fellow men, had also joined the chase.
The two were competing for the third one, on this race,
For the girl from the mountain hut.

The forest path was dusty with many a stray rock.
Seth urged his horse to go faster, and beat the clock.
With time and chances running out of stock,
He was worried about the girl from the mountain hut.

Liam, and his men, charged ahead straight.
With his target in sight, he had no time to wait.
He was determined to make her believe in her sad fate.
'She' was the girl from the mountain hut.

Both Liam and Seth had chosen the same path to take.
The distance to be covered was great.
With the situation already in a sorry state-
Scared, was the girl from the mountain hut.

In any case, secrets can't be hidden for long.
Before the situation could worsen and prolong,
She escaped from her hut not too long.
'She' was the girl from the mountain hut.

She left her hut and the town far behind.
Crossing the rivers to the peaks which outlined
The border, across which there was a familiar place in her mind-
Westlands, the homeland of the girl from the mountain hut.

To rest, and to wait, she took refuge in a cave.
She hoped that the tamed eagle took the letter she gave
Because then, time would be saved,
Thought the girl from the mountain hut.

She waited in the darkness, cold and scared.
To do such reckless things, she would have never dared.
"I hope you do come here prepared..." said,
The sleepy girl from the mountain hut.
