EARTH HYMN
Fly with my thoughts,
An Earth Charter,
Calling out to mankind;
Let there be joy!
Kiss the green pastures
Where simple peasants
Sow the seeds
Of their destiny.
Let the fresh air
Of my planet be felt
In the laughter of the children
As windward they
Steer their kites.
Drink from the clear brook
Which flows from the hills
And high mountains
Of our lovely land.
Fly to the Pyrenees,
Explore the Caucasus,
Brush lightly the Andes,
Under the clear sky.
Sing to the world
That our Earth is life,
And that we are hers
Forevermore.
Earth, my Earth,
My very own…
