Forgive me, O Lord!
We are very ungrateful beings,
Constantly cheating  ourselves
And gradually dragging our own destruction
And drowning in the bottom of darkness.
The air that you have sent for our benefit,
Has been contaminated by us.

For the balance of this world
The mountains you created,
Have been destructed by us for no reason.
We have torn these
For our enjoyment and lust.

The beautiful heart of animals and birds,
The forest, the lungs of the earth are burning.
Today we have forgotten
The history of our birth.

O Lord!
You have not sent any force from the sky
To subdue our *******.
Today the whole world is being overwhelmed
By just a single invisible and almost lifeless virus-
One kind of microorganism.

The nuclear weapons
And submarines are now a big shame for us.
I can clearly see the lines on the foreheads
Of the world leaders.

Today there is no end of our regret.
We have surrendered ourselves
To the vastness of your grace.
We have taken shelter
In the coat of your own existence.
Forgive us, oh Lord!
