We belong here.
The seeds we sow,
the harvest we reap
create our cultural legacy,
rooted in ancient memories
of plants, and place, and people,
woven together
by time and heritage.
We are of this earth,
made of soil and soul.
We are of this land,
as much a part of it
as the stones and trees,
the sky and water.
We share our stories to remember,
bequeathing our inheritance
to our sons and daughters,
honoring our gifts,
celebrating our intergenerational bonds.
We belong here,
and here belongs to us,
our blood and bones,
our minds and hearts,
our eyes and hands,
our sweat and tears,
blessing the fields
and one another
forever
and ever
and ever.
