Across this uncertain countryside.
A gentle beauty, she prefers a barefoot walk.
She enjoys the feeling, safe and pure.
Of the Earth between her toes.
Through the scorching fires of Hell, she's walked.
Still, with every step she's smiled.
Always, she's said her pain strengthens her.
Making her feel like home, as if she were one with the universe.
Just to look at her, you'd never know.
The endless struggles, such a girl has faced.
