'As I walk with Beauty

As I walk, as I walk,

The universe is

walking with me,

In beauty,

it walks before me,

In beauty,

it walks behind me,

In beauty,

it walks below me,

In beauty,

it walks above me,

Beauty is on every side."

"A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air, and giving fresh strength to our people."
