I did not learn how to love
I did not learn how to live
I did not learn how to speak
I did not learn what all know
And me
Nothing but a tree!
It is indeed a wrong notion
A wrong judgement about me by myself
A tree is far better than you and me
Though you may deny this.
Never I saw to measure a tree
How much it has given to earth
And in spite of being millionaires
One is more miser to her.
I want to be like a real tree
I want to give all my chattels
And what a tree imparts
Never thousands book can impart.
Oh! My God!
Let me be, at least a leaf
Since my birth
I have been consuming earth and sunshine
Now, it is time to provide more
Let you sort me a fuel
Or use me as an ampule to placate your appetite.

I would like to translate this poem
Tree and leaf are life of earth. It'll always remember the trees who beautified her. Beautiful ode to Earth by tree.
