I am the Earth and the Earth is me.
Each blade of grass, each honey tree,
Each bit of mud, and stick and stone
Is blood and muscle, skin and bone.
And just as I need every bit
Of me to make my body fit,
So Earth needs grass and stone and tree
And things that grow here naturally.
That's why we celebrate this day.
That's why across the world we say:
As long as life, as dear, as free,
I am the Earth and the Earth is me.
