A bird flinched on the bloody grass.
Birds, fish, animals look into people's souls.
Feel sorry for them, people! Don't kill in vain!
After all, the sky without birds is not the sky,
And a sea without fish is not a sea,
And a land without animals is not a land.
Giant people, giant people,
You have rifles, nets and traps.
You have fearlessness, you have strength forever.
And there must be a heart. Human heart!
Human people, countries and peoples,
We are now forever debtors to nature!
We need to pay off this debt somehow.
Let the wounded bird spread its wings!

I live in steppes and deserts

On the hottest continent.

Look, don't meddle with me, you enemy.

(Ostrich)
