Her hair is in the oceans,
her breath is on the wind,
her soul is in
the life
that is drawn from her.
The Earth is a good wife, great mother.
She gives grace and grander.
Her seas are her womb,
her mountains are her milk,
the rivers are
her blood.
Let us respect and love her,
for she is life and mother
to us her
begotten children
… to us her forgetful children.
The Earth is a beautiful woman.
