Classic route to Khan Tengri Peak.

“We walk alone in an empty and dark world,
Cold whiteness fades.
But through the whirlwind, with an intermittent dotted line,
The climbing chain is visible!

There is light at home and a map in the corner.
Warm. The window is shuttered.
A red chain winds across the map,
Crossing out the white spot!
