Let’s celebrate water by Hugo De Burgos

Let’s celebrate water by Hugo De Burgos
Let’s celebrate water
Let’s celebrate its life
Let’s celebrate together, water, an essential right
Let’s celebrate today
Before it is too late
Let’s celebrate together, oceans, oasis, inlets,
Let’s celebrate water
Let’s celebrate its love
Let’s celebrate together, water, blessing from above
A paradox it is
In such great quantity
For many people it’s a nightmare of scarcity
Let’s keep it running free
Let’s keep it running clean
Let’s keep it running fresh and clean for everyone to drink
Water’s fragility
Vulnerability
Let’s save our water from the grasp of much aridity
Let us raise our voices with imagination
Drumming, dancing, painting, singing no contamination
No more global sadness, no more cruel deforestation.
That’s enough!
Let’s celebrate today
Before it is too late
Let’s celebrate together keeping the world’s water safe
Ungrateful humans are
Bringing catastrophe
Contamination is a terrible reality
Rivers of misery
Great lakes in agony
Oil, greed and plastic in a globalized insanity
Liquid vitality
Holy immortality
Of life sustainer, fountain of the great divinity
Ancient aquatic soul
Much more precious than gold
Solemn and cheerful, simple, complex, mythological
Our human mission is
Fine water quality
For every creature in this planet and for you and me!
Socially responsible, peoples and nations
Let us come together, celebrate sweet irrigation
No more global sadness, no more cruel deforestation.
Water’s life!
