The Whole World is Burning

On the Yangtze River a million people rise to the white cranes of the morning like shamans circling in the sky Smoke Rising from the village, women bent in fields of rice A Picture from 5,000 years of birth and death and life This dragon snakes 4,000 miles, river of fortune, river of tears The gateway to a history of 100,000 years And 10,000 species soon to vanish like some dream Left to wander, lost forever to the folly of human beings The Whole World is Burning The Whole World is Burning You don’t have to wait for Armageddon’s cries There’s a hundred stories will bring water to your eyes Any Baghdad Morning, any tree that falls What happens to the least of these happens to us all The Whole World is Burning The Whole World is Burning Om Tara Tuttare Ture Soha…. I want your body, want to pull you tight Want to rock you softly in the cradle of this night I want to kiss your heartbreak, I want to see you through What else can we want, what else should we do When The Whole World is Burning The Whole World is Burning Can’t we find more courage, can’t we find more strength If we knew just what to do I think we’d make a change Maybe not for us but for the babies still to come Throw our bodies on the fire for our daughters and our sons The Whole World is Burning The Whole World is Burning….
