Earth

I got life in the womb of the mother 

and live in the lap of mother earth

She showers blessings on us 

in the form of foods and shelter 

We breathe air to survive 

but we cut her arm 

and sow seeds of poison in her womb

which makes earth barren 

Clouds have deserted the sky

and rivers have stopped flowing 

We emit smokes and choke her's lung

We have eyes and ears 

but we are blind and deaf 

The fire is raging the forest 

but we cannot feel the heat 

Bees do not sit on the flowers 

as nectar has dried 

Tears roll down the eyes of mother earth 

as we deceive her 

Time and tide wait for none 

so the mother's anguish 

It's time now to wipe out her tears 

and fill her laps by flowers 

present her gift of plants and trees 

garland her by rainbow

 

Future generations look to us 

for our devotion to mother earth 

Let's remember

what we sow, so we reap
