Oh, Mother Earth, on your day
Earth,
Mother Earth
In the big cosmic space

Of about 7900 miles dia
Solidified on the surface
Still holding a lot
Molten hot lava within

No one knows for precise

All depend on her not only for a basic living
But also for other luxuries
She helps them grow, get aged and decay
Everything goes back to her
Only to come up again in a new mould
She gives birth to everything
She nourishes them
She has been supplying all that we need
And our demand keeps increasing every second
As we bring into use new devices and facilities
We are also discovering new things beneath the surface
And held within her
