No rainbow without rain.
No perspective without pain,
that from the climb you gain,
when you conquer your mountain.

When darkness has descended,
your energy sapped and all hope has flown,
you fall shattered and forlorn,
look to the light within.

When thunder rages out around,
wisdom in the voice within is found.
So mark that hallowed ground,
so the next intrepid soul shall know:

drink your tears,
its your fountain of wisdom;
embrace your fears,
its your armour for battles to come.
