    Oh Earth, the gem of the universe, so rich and so fair, With oceans deep and skies so blue, and landscapes beyond compare.

  • En dikt: Planeten Jorden

    Åh Jorden, universums pärla, så rik och så rättvis, Med hav djupa och himmel så blå och landskap bortom jämförelse.

    A Poem: The Degradation of Planet Earth in my Lifetime
