the thundering rocks

The river of stones

Tumbled down from the slope

Caught the climbers unaware

Knocking the death of souls

The screams and shouting

The panic eyes saw the boulders and stones

It never stopped its rampage

The living knocked down buried alive

The rumbling of rocks fell

The thundering rocks came

The climbers ran for their lives

Some couldn't make into safety net

One guide gave up his life

Shouting for his charge to run

He was last to go but he died

The rocks got him

The earthquake in Sabah

Mount Kinabalu was the scene

Rescue workers and helicopters went

Brought down the climbers to safety

Now those living on hill slopes

Don't think you are safe from tragedy

Better watch your surrounding areas

Nature will strike without warning
