I am the last tree on this wounded limb of yours, Oh Mother,
Can they wake up to the havoc they’ve created, at least now?
They’ve slayed me, they’ve hurt you; as though it’s all sacred,
What more are they waiting for: to erase me and you off the scene?
You offered them your land, they turned it into an arid patch,
You gave them water, they wasted and ravaged it beyond match,
I gave them life, and so much more, because you said so,
They gorged me for things unnecessary, never heeding to my woe
Do they imagine the repercussions coming, once I’m gone?
Can they even visualize something called life, if you begin to decline?
How can they so royally ignore you and your agonizing moan?
Will they ever realize that it is you, who gave them a chance to breathe?
Why are you still keeping mum after all this, Oh Mother in disdain
Ask them to act soon or show them what it is like when you go insane !!
