The wavering theory

Since the beginning of age the earth remained

its ears were inclined to only the voice of wisdom

earth did not seek for gold attained

Nor craved for a mere presumed system

The earth is older than any powerful Pharaoh ordained

Yet you tell me it withers away

Men looked for knowledge from creation

The earth opened its magnificence and wonder

Earth embraced every child under the sun without any obligation

we were safe, we were comfortable, even on the sea with a rudder

The earth was and always will be the mother of a vast nation

Yet you tell me it withers away

We dug up wells to find the purest water

We planted seeds and trusted earth to give us good produce

The land didn't cry when an animal fell on the soil for slaughter

the reasons for doing things in order was a recommendation and no excuse

and in those days of long ago the sun became hotter and hotter

Yet you tell me that it withers away

Our ancestors dug up wealth from the ground under

they found out that the earth was rich

Their respect for mother nature did not put its foundations asunder

every single one of them who worked to get silver for his own niche 

like animals some of them wanted to plunder

Yet you tell me that it withers away

The age of accountability and dignity expired

the earth wept bitterly because of the greed and bloody

The animals went back to their hiding place in holes and retired

from the third to the fourth generation mankind noticed their ability to rule

their spirits were like those of the possessed they were cruel 

Yet you tell me that the earth withers away

You have exaggerated, telling us that the ice melts

You have made forecasts that weather patterns have changed dramatically

You gained riches for you and your kind and no one else

with rumors of the ozone layer subdued by the harsh rays

preaching that earth is overpopulated but we know you want the resources

And you still tell me that it withers away

Nature has its own time

A time for change at its own will

you have never understood its language because you never taught yourself 

 You have made nations to fear and act with no discernment

In the end earth will plead with wisdom to restore it to its glory

So that you do not tell its true children that it withers away
