Our common, one Mother, our provider good Mother Earth;
nourishing us with food, shelter, water, and air since birth.
Thanks, generous Mother Earth for 'Life' this life, our life to live;
Forgive us if we don't share and abuse what you selflessly give.

May you forgive us and still give everyone all that we need;
Indeed you're a compassionate Mother who always bleeds;
just to feed everything and every one morning, night and noon;
Each and every creature and being we'll all commune so soon.

Sorry, Mother Earth if we all fight for your resources;
For our deadly weapons of war and destructive forces;
Sorry if we don't know how to share and give as we live;
Mother Earth we learn from you how to give and to forgive.

Each drop of blood lost in violence and wars are not worth it;
Mother Earth we promise you to have peace in all if you permit;
As we sit and discern we realize wars and violence we need to quit;
our wars for your resources Mother Earth is just everyone's defeat.

Then again thank you so much Mother Earth for the Life you give;
As we live we will imitate how for every one you give and forgive;
All the needed resources Mother Earth that we receive from you;
We will share it for the good of everyone may it be many or few.

'Mother Earth Thank You'
