Pupils were singing songs and reciting poems about water as a source of life. They were telling their colleagues how important water is for us and how should we look after it. One of the song " The World without the Water" is recorded and published below.
Song translated by Martyna Masiak pupil of Szkoła Podstawowa nr 11 in Przemyśl
Those who waste
water forget,
That perhaps there
will be a time
When there's no
water anymore
And nothing will
help
Not prayers, not
spells,
Not magic, not
threats,
If the water vanishes,
so will the life
And pleading won't
help either
Chorus:
When all the
springs dry,
When the rivers are
gone,
No birds will fly,
No fish will swim,
No trees will grow,
And no human will
live.
The Earth will be a
desert
With nothing, but
silence in it.
2.
The world is dead
without water
No trees, no
flowers or bugs
Where the wind will
dry up everything
The sun will burn
it in seconds
It's time to repeat
the truth
And make the
discovery again
That there's no way
to live without water
Water – it's life,
basically
Chorus:
When all the
springs dry,
When the rivers are
gone,
No birds will fly,
No fish will swim,
No trees will grow,
And no human will
live.
The Earth will be a
desert
With nothing, but
silence in it.
