If we sing with all the voices
..................................... of a mountain,
And we applaud at countless
......................... creatures giving birth,
When the symphony of life
............................ is stifled by disdain
We will feel the need to mourn
.................................... for dying earth.
If we enter into pleasure
............................. with each rainbow,
And we paint our words
......................in colours of right mind,
When the clouds dropp toxic rain
........................ enough to foster woe
We feel like weeping too
......................... at what is left behind.
If we follow all the footprints
............................................ of a river,
And we understand
.................the lovesong of the moon,
When the silent pleas of
............... dying trees set us ashiver,
We will feel the need for work
..................... to stem earth' s doom.

I would like to translate this poem
If we replace the forests and bring water to the deserts if we stop the smoking chimneys of despair if we stop the rape and pillage of the jungles we may create a world for all to share
