Let us let the forests speak loud,
Let their voice reverberate with the chirps of birds,
The roar of tigers, the trumpet of elephants,
The hissing of snakes and the hooves of herbivores.
Let us let the winds move vast clouds
And whistle from the spaces between the trees.
Let us let the water trickle the ponds and soil
With their soothe enriching this castle’s chores.
Let us let the sun shine, bright so high in day,
And it’s presence give the divine feeling always.
Let us let the moon illuminate the dark lands
And it’s blessing be an aura on all it falls on.
Let us let the rain cool the places across
And the aroma of life it evokes shall end all that is not.
Let us not stop nature from doing it’s working
From all that we do.
Let us not just end ourselves
By the things we ourselves do.
