In a land of ancient lore,
Where bamboo forests grow galore,
Lies a wetland wild and free,
A border to civilization, you see.
Bamboo shoots, tall and green,
A character so serene,
Whispering secrets to the wind,
A peaceful harmony, they sing.
For ages, this wetland has thrived,
Nature's gifts, it has supplied,
A home to creatures big and small,
In harmony, they coexist with all.
So, let us cherish this precious land,
And lend a helping hand,
To protect its beauty and grace,
For generations to embrace.
In this land of ancient lore,
The wetland is a treasure to adore,
May its beauty and wonder endure,
Forevermore, and evermore.
