A child’s prayer<\/p>\n

Please, let me live, give me a chance<\/p>\n

of life on Earth to have a glance,<\/p>\n

Let me grow roots and let me shine<\/p>\n

on this blue planet in decline.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When I was born into this Light<\/p>\n

you all blessed me with great delight,<\/p>\n

you all were filled with greedy thoughts:<\/p>\n

“Our child will have money loads”!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You ripped this planet with blind eyes<\/p>\n

you cut its trees, darkened its skies,<\/p>\n

you killed the life to which you’re bound<\/p>\n

searching for money all around.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mothers and fathers please, redeem!<\/p>\n

Listen to your children scream!<\/p>\n

Life is a gift to receive once.<\/p>\n

Do not destroy fragile balance!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I need not money to sleep tight,<\/p>\n

to have fresh air and starry night,<\/p>\n

serene to listen to birds’ song,<\/p>\n

to feel that here I do belong!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Please let me live, let me grow old!<\/p>\n

Stop searching for leprechaun’s gold!<\/p>\n

Stop your greed, your badness, lust,<\/p>\n

for me to have in Future trust.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For me to see the moon, the sun,<\/p>\n

with birds and flowers to have fun,<\/p>\n

for me to see a heaven blue,<\/p>\n

to grow old kind, and good, and true.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Protect me from your evil deeds!<\/p>\n

Stop lying! You don\u2019t know my needs.<\/p>\n

Do you want me to show you how?<\/p>\n

For me, please, save the Planet now!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
