You are but an old true
With roots gone deep and far
Breathing through every pore
Giving this earth fresh air
Don't deny it and be unfair
For hundeds of your sons and daughter
Are living on your arms in despair
But you assume you are a stupid human
Humans who drive axes on their own feet
No matter many a times you speak
Their mistakes they repeat
You'll come down to the ground if you pay no heed
Why do you horde so many fruits
And breathe heavy under their burden?
When you could give them all
And see your children dance with joy
But you'll succumb to your wants
As that's every miser's fate
Before you go at least once listen
You are but an old tree
- The Last Nomad
