Youth Ignites Our Destiny
The earth, like a compassionate witness,
Resonated with the shared agony of profound loss.
In the quiet corners where emotions reside,
A common ache throbs, in the planet’s heart, we confide.
Beneath celestial arcs, a plea profound,
Let harmony and care be our common ground.
Now’s the hour for change to unfold,
Let’s weave a better tale, our future retold.
On landscapes painted with hues so green,
The canvas of tomorrow is yet to be seen.
With hands joined strong, hearts aligned,
A pledge to nature, a vow to mankind.
Communities thriving, hand in hand,
In the mosaic of life, where we stand.
Equality, justice, pillars so strong,
In the anthem of change, we all belong.
The Earth, hurting but resilient,
seeks companions in the youth.
It urges them to become custodians,
guardians of a planet in need of healing.
So, let the youth step into this narrative with purpose.
Let them sow seeds of sustainable living,
nurture the roots of conservation,
and weave a story where harmony between humanity
and the Earth is the central theme.
For in their hands lies the power to transform the narrative of Earth’s
hurt into a tale of regeneration and shared prosperity.
