2009年8月8日的莫拉克风灾，敲碎了也敲醒了人们的心。灾难发生在离我不到一个小时车程远的地方。为著不远处的同胞感到心痛与焦急的同时，我有了深刻的感触与省思。大自然不是像其他人说的真的“反扑”了，她是因为伤痕累累，而“垮”了下来，崩塌了下来，造成了无数的灾难。

我们如果对地球好一点，地球也会对我们好。

On 8th of Aug. in 2009 Typhoon Morakot had shocked and awakened people's minds . The disaster that occurred took place in a location less than 1 hour drive away from my residence. Feeling hurt and worried for our countrymen not that far away, I had deep thoughts and feelings on what has occurred. Mother nature was not exactly like what others may label as" fighting back" but instead, she had “collapsed" and caused numerous disasters.

Treat our earth better, and she will also treat us well.

我们对地球好一点
地球也会对我们好
我们心中的上帝也会对我们好
然后台湾受创的心灵 回渐渐复原
会渐渐绽放 不再哭泣的微笑

我们对地球好一点
地球也会爱我们
我们膜拜的神明也会爱我们
然后桥梁不再断裂 群山不再走位
洪水悄悄退去  阳光亲吻大地

地球阿地球 你是美丽的 地球阿地球 你是仁慈的
(间奏）
给我们机会好好对待你
再给我们信心好好重建家园

为你放弃自私 为你舍弃骄傲
为你维护尊严 为你保护孩子

树鱼草鸟 河川与空气
猪牛羊马 泥土与人类

地球的孩子 我们是地球的孩子 地球的孩子

为你保护人类 为你保护树林
为你保护动物 为你保护河流

花虫雨蛇 石头与阳光
鸡鸭狗猫 海洋与峡谷

地球的孩子 我们是地球的孩子 地球的孩子
地球的孩子 我们是地球的孩子 地球的孩子

Treat our earth better 
And she will also treat us well 
Our gods will also treat us well
Then the tormented souls of Taiwan will recover little by little 
With no more tears, smiles will burst open gradually 
 
Treat our earth better 
And she will also love us 
Gods we worship will also treat us well 
Our bridges will not break again 
Mountains will not move again 
Floods will fade quietly 
The sun will kiss the land 
 
Earth oh earth  you are beautiful 
Earth oh earth  you are kind 
(interlude) 
give us a chance to treat you well 
give us confidence to rebuild our home  
 
give up our selfishness for you 
abandon our pride for you 
maintain your dignity for you 
protect the children for you 
 
trees and fish and grass and birds, with rivers and air 
pigs and cows and goats and horses, with soil and humans 
 
children of earth, we are children of earth, children of earth  
 
Protect humans for you 
Protect forests for you 
Protect animals for you 
Protect rivers for you 
 
flowers and bugs and rain and snakes, with stones and the sun 
chicken and ducks and dogs and cats, with oceans and canyons 
 
children of earth, we are children of earth, children of earth  
children of earth, we are children of earth, children of earth
