To Our Earth Mother

The men who dig up your ground and steal from you your gold
In money have grown wealthier but not wiser as they grow old
Where big machines have been digging huge holes in numbers abound
This is always the case where men dig in the ground
Mother Earth our greatest achievements to your's does seem small
You are the one who does feed and take care of us  all
Those who think they do own you have got it all wrong
Since you are  the one  to whom we do belong
Into you we were born and we must return to you one day
And in your cool earthy bosom our  last remains will lay
It is a fact for life on you we are dependant and fact never lie
We depend on you to live without you we would die
Yet from you our Earth Mother the one whom we depend on for  to live
We take and we take and in return to you nothing give.
