My Country



My country is the mixture of a rainbow

Green, golden yellow, blue, red. BRIGHT. - You see!

I am so happy here - to LIVE and BE.


Amazing forests, long rivers, peaceful hills, deep lakes ---

Some enormous stones that calmly lie

Such landscape always everybody wakes

So, don't be shy ---


Breath this fresh air, look at the majestic sky

See tall, thick trees that wave for you ... gently

Look! And the refreshing rain starts to pour. --- No dry.

With its tiny legs - it will wash all the land (again) gently, gently ...


It's so cool, warm and stunning - EVERYTHING!

While running my eyes over - MY native homeland

And ...

And I always just want to do ONE crazy thing

To kiss it all over - and give her my hand ...
