Lyrics

By an uncanny coincidence, Mount Kailash perfectly matches the legend of the mythical axis of the world.
Its four faces are roughly aligned to the compass, and four major rivers flow from its foothills.
These are some of the most significant rivers in Asia.
The Yarlung, which becomes India's Brahmaputra, the Indus and Sutlej, which flow to Pakistan, and the Karnali, a major feeder for the Ganges.
Thanks to its connection with the mythical mountain, Kailash is so sacred that it's never been climbed.
It's Tibet's most important pilgrimage site.
For Tibetans, pilgrimage is a journey from ignorance to enlightenment. A pilgrimage around the sacred mountain is believed to wipe out the sins of a lifetime, increasing the chance of a better rebirth. Most pilgrims time their visit for the most important festival in the Tibetan calendar. For over 1,000 years they have gathered at the foot of Kailash for the Saga Dawa festival to celebrate Buddha's enlightenment.
The festival climaxes with the raising of the newly dressed altar, a 25-metre flagpole.
The full entourage of Tibetan monks make the most of the occasion, with music, prayers, and blessings.
机缘巧合的是伽拉萨山同世界屋脊神话中的描述非常吻合。它的四个面大体向罗盘的四个方向，还有四条主河从丘陵地带奔流。他们是亚洲最重要的四条河，雅鲁藏布江形成了印度的布拉马普特拉河、印度河和流经巴基斯坦的萨特累季河，以及恒河的主要支流-----卡那丽河。由于连接着神话般的高山，卡伊拉什山令人感到神圣而从未被攀登过。它是朝圣者在西藏最重要的朝圣点，对于西藏人来说，朝圣之旅是从无知到被教化的过程。环行圣山的朝圣者认为这样做可以消除一生的罪孽，获得一个更好的来生。大多数朝圣者把朝圣的时间安排在，最重要的藏历节日之时。一千多年以来，他们聚集在卡伊拉什山脚。来庆祝萨嘎达瓦节，感谢佛陀的教化。当新装饰的圣坛上升起25米高的番杆时，节日达到了高潮，藏族僧侣的音乐，祷文和祝福，贯穿了节日的始终。
