O’h Mother Nature, how long will look on while your children perish?
Look at the war torn countries like Rwanda, Angola, Burundi, Sierra Leone,
Liberia, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Israel, Palestine,
Consider how these orphan will feel,
the mental and emotional agony of struggling for survival.
O’h patrons of mankind, rise up with the rising sun of the 21st century
and rescue the perishing,
For your future leaders may otherwise have nothing
other than to begrudge, revenge, hate, envy
and destroy the surface of the world.
A child who is cared for, guided and sympathized,
lives to care and labor for peace and harmony for posterity.
O’h noble men of this age, patrons of mankind,
show the strength of your humor,
rescue the lower races from dying,
Mother Nature
show us the way to unite,
show us the way to tolerate each other,
show us the way to love each other,
and show us the way to share our resources equally.
Protectors of mankind, rescue the perishing and care for the dying.
Wrote it during the civil wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone (1991)
Dedicated to the children and women in Israel, Palestine, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Africa and all other places we may not know. God bless you all
