MOTHER EARTH.

The magnificence of thy kingdom,

Great offsprings inherited,

Thy wondrous children,

The earth filled,

Thy little babies,

Striving in the odds.

 

Mother Earth,

So blessed thou art,

You have all is wanted,

A mother could wish,

Thy children great,

Thy elegant babies,

With talents they were born,

In bliss lived,

In peace seek thee,

In wonder beheld we,

The might of thy babies.

 

Mother Earth,

Thy eyelids may descend,

Keep thy heads down,

Bow thy knees now,

Fly from the top,

Behold thee now,

The agony of the earth,

The world thou begat,

Flew thou away,

In care of offsprings,

The sight of torment,

The end of thy joy.

 

Mother earth,

If by thee commanded,

Thy great talents,

In wars prospered,

In peace retard,

Why give thou,

In destruction,

Thy babies,

The garden thou made,

 

In explosions destroyed,

Will thou keep me silent,

Till the day I die.

 

Mother earth,

By thy sight behold,

Thy loving kids,

In love raised,

In lust reigned,

Where is thy love,

Sought in return,

Unfound pronounced,

Where came thee lust,

In bliss of love,

Why pretended thou,

Thy heart could weep,

Why keep me here,

Where rest my soul?

 

Mother earth,

Born in affluence,

Why separated me now,

In poverty influenced,

Shall thy knee bow,

When thou separated me not,

Why me segregated,

In plenty amidst.

 

Mother Earth,

Thy promise foretold,

Why keep not the word,

Why hid thee love,

In light of lust,

Why hid thee harmony,

Discord revealed,

Hold me up now,

Keep me not here,

Let my fly to thee,

If comest thou not,

In salvation of my world,

In torment of evil.

 

Blessed mother,

Teach me love now,

Spare me lust,

Save my world now,

If by thee appointed,

Let me fight now,

Thy knight in dark,

Spread thy light,

In hope of love,

Save us now,

Breed us in love.
