lyrics

Her son’s oath

Mother I am so grateful for all your giving us
Everything we need to lead a life of peace and happiness

Some of my brothers and sisters are selfish they want more than they need
They beat, rape, and steal from you to satisfy their greed

I swear mother to stand in defiance of this abomination
I will not co-operate in their society’s exploitation

Mother Nature
She is crying
She is dying

Giving up city life and city life’s complications
I will shelter in the country for simple life and meditations

Leaving aside the modern fashions designed to excite sexual attraction
I’ll wear simple homespun cotton from our village plantation

I’ll not eat foods of blood and flesh cause my body’s not a graveyard
I’ll eat grains and vegetables fresh saying praise to God

Mother Nature
She is crying
she is dying

somebody help our mother
somebody hear our mother
somebody cure our mother
somebody love our mother
somebody protect our mother
somebody help our mother
somebody respect our mother
somebody hear our mother
