Watch where you are going

Watch out for the puddles and potholes

and for the steps and low ceilings

Watch out for taxis and rickshaws

and for the pedestrian who’s not looking

Watch out for the pigeons and monkeys

and for the rain and sunshine

Watch out for the stūpas and buddhas

and for the blessing they bring

Watch out for the wood carvings made by Newaris

and for their temples and shrines

Look back on Nepal, the beautiful country

Look back on the trip of a lifetime.
