Green Nature is Our Mother

Tanvir Mostafa

Beauteous pictures were carved in the bosom of nature,

As if they were engraved by the hand of a creator.

The natural elegance is fixed so exquisitely that one can’t help being glad,

Among the nature wooers, I am one—forever mad.

Provided I find a natural site anywhere, at least I struggle to sojourn,

Nature calls me gently, and I always return.

Nature is divine, nature is lustrous and she is green,

I foster a yearning in the lap of nature if I could always have been.

Perhaps it could be if I was born in pastorally painted June,

I could have been brought up under my own mother and nature mother’s tune.
