Tiger Anthem


Well.....i just came through this beautiful poem in Tigers thing on the WWF india website....

I too say....Save the tiger......Respect its Life. Respect Life..not only yours or of the tiger......but of every creature on this earth. Well...maybe we can learn to respect that. Belonging to a place where probably the worlds biggest tiger population thrives read Jim Corbett National Park...i know that these creatures do not have a lot of space to live in......we are eating out in to their place....worse still....we are killing them.....Join the Save the Tiger Campaign here....
..Seeing them in a zoo doesnt give the slightiest ideas as to how marvellous therse creatures look like in the wild..and how nature has bestowed on them the sheer power ... the might..the ROAR...Belive me, the world wont look good with only the Freaky Humans in it....maybe we should save it for ourselves...Hers that good sounding Anthem..The tiger Anthem:


My son asked me the other day

Do we have tigers only in the zoos

My teacher tells me the forests are gone

The deers are gone, wild animals are gone

The king of the junge now kills our cattle

Poachers on his trail Now people live where once he lived

His skin is up for sale.

I said son, your teacher's not fully right

Tigers are in danger, but still they survive

You can still see them in the wild Sure I will take you there someday

The future of the tiger still hangs by a thread

But the battle is still not lost We don't wanna see tigers only in the zoos

We'll save them at any cost And its now or never, for the future of the tiger

It is time to decide if we wanna see the tigers in the wild

And he looked you in the eye, When you shot him, before he died

It is time that we ensure we gave the tigers a safe home.

Well son, the tiger needs your support In you his future lies

If the tigers live, the forests live

And we need it for us to survive

I take the vow not to buy anything

That has tiger part

And I will try my best to gain all support

For the tiger with all my heart And its now or never....
