Environment

Dwelling place is the environment

Of all the creatures of nature

Guided are their lives

By the facilities nature provided

Protection they get from the environment

Is necessary for their nourishment

Like a mother it looks after

Like a father it takes care

God’s miracles are viewed in it

Denial of which it is impossible

Awareness it gives to men

Who think and wonder about life

--------------------------------------------------

But as time moves the age

Subjected is the environment to change

Digging ground it has become

To the excavators of luxury

Thrusting is man’s mind

For development and progress

Forgetting God’s boon to mankind

Blind-folded man marches forward

To the destruction of the environment

And the extinction of life on earth

-------------------------------------------------

But let man be reminded

Of the common natural phenomenon

Reaction for every action

Is inevitable in the laws of nature

Movement beyond the law is impossible

Judgment will be the result if he does

So let the slogan be raised

To save the environment and save life
