We Don't Sit Still

We don't sit still
Our scrub was clean
Change the weeds with the trees
Producing natural guard forests

We looked at the settlement
Standing on the highest peak of the mainland within the region
Under the horizon we looked at every human being
Sweat and sweat may be inherited

To the human inhabitants of nature
Don't waste what we do
Keep the earth from destruction
Save the generation from extinction

Kami tidak duduk diam
Semak belukar kami bersihkan
Mengganti ilalang dengan pepohonan
Memproduksi hutan penjaga alam

Kami menatap pemukiman
Berdiri di puncak tertinggi daratan dalam kawasan
Di bawah kaki langit kami menatap setiap insan
Peluh dan keringat semoga menjadi warisan

Kepada manusia penghuni alam
Janganlah engkau sia-siakan apa yang kami lakukan
Jagalah bumi dari kehancuran
Selamatkan generasi dari kepunahan

Such a beautiful call for people to respect and save nature. The image on the right goes perfectly with the lines 'We looked at the settlement//Standing on the highest peak of the mainland within the region'. Well done! Thank you for sharing, and thank you for doing what you do to reverse mans' destruction when it comes to nature.

PS: If you are interested and have some spare time, I have some poetry on my blog too.

yes, in our place, citizens have their own way to preserve nature through local wisdom.

That's amazing. We need many, many people like you and the people in your place around the world.
