A Forlorn fate that was!
Witness by a critic’s eye
A beauty once adored
Abandoned bleak onto the shore
What have they done to thee?
O’ mistress of the ocean
Thy glamorous kingdom in the deep wrecked,
Those colorful garden corals of yours turned grey,
Your magnificent haven down under shattered
Cyanide and dynamite destroyed your majestic bed
What have they done to thee?
O’ mistress of the ocean
Your serene neighborhood transformed to chaos
Your dearest family put to extinction
Not a sound of lovely siren but a shriek can now be heard
There they are, floating thru the waves cold and dead
What have they done to thee?
O' mistress of the ocean
I had witness thy agony,
It’s heartbreaking to see
The kindness of thee been exploited,
A victim of lust and greed
What have they done to thee?
O' mistress of the ocean
Dressed you with sorts of dirt
Blanketed with dark grease
Fed you with toxic wastes,
And suffocates the air you breathe
What have they done to thee?
O' mistress of the ocean
You’ve given everyone’s a bounty,
Yet they treated you harshly
You’re exquisiteness faded
Alas, your friend mankind brought you the burden!
