PRAISE BE, PRAISE BE

God created the Earth

With love and affection

In seven days.

 

Mountains, stones, seas

And even plants, animals

Well, then one day

It was our turn

They are my most intelligent living one, he said,

Made us privileged

From head to foot.

 

By spitting in the same plate we eat

We cut the branch we were sitting on.

Praise be, praise be.

 

By hitting a button

In a second

We are going to wipe out the world.

If God permits, praise be.
