Sunderbans Speaks
Green meets blue, land kisses sea,
Mangrove maze, wild and free.
Tigers prowl, deer leap light,
Nature's dance, day and night.
Muddy banks, roots reach high,
Crocs snap, birds paint the sky.
Salt and fresh, waters blend,
Life begins, life will end.
People fish, brave the tide,
Boats glide where dangers hide.
Honey hunters risk it all,
Forest whispers, hear its call.
Climate shifts, seas rise slow,
Threaten all, high and low.
Trees stand guard, they won't bow,
To save this place, we must act now.
Rivers snake, islands form,
Shaped by time, sun, and storm.
Home to many, known by few,
Sunderbans' tale, old yet new.
Bengal's treasure, world's wonder,
Don't let greed tear it asunder.
Stripes and leaves, mud and foam,
Sunderbans: Earth's wildest home.
Respect its power, heed its plea,
Protect this land where tigers see.
For if we lose this sacred space,
We lose a part of the human race.
Stand up now, let your voice soar,
For Sunderbans, forevermore!
