A sparrow comes and sits on my window sill
Curiously enquiring why the city is so still
Seen some lovely species of birds in Bombay
Would have normally made me feel so gay
Nature is fighting back, reclaiming its due
We destroyed the environment with abandon but now we have no clue
The atrocities we have committed on this planet
Exploiting the natural resources like a bandit
My heart shudders thinking of the impending doom
Loss of lives and livelihoods and all the gloom
Will we ever learn from our mistakes?
Climate change deniers, how long for Christ’s sake
Decimating all other species for our greed
Now its payback time for our deeds
0.14 microns-sized organism has shown us our place
Wake up, let’s not treat this as just another obstacle or race
