Climate Conference inspires a song

November 15, 2007

Popular Indonesian Musican NugiePopular musician and entertainer Nugie, has had a long involvement in promoting environmental issues in his home country of Indonesia. After a recent meeting with Oxfam staff about the current and potential impacts of climate change on people living in poverty, Nugie wrote and recorded the song “World, Let’s Share Together” to raise the profile of Climate Change, in the lead-up to the United Nations Climate Change Conference, which will be held in Bali, Indonesia in December.

Not satisfied with recording the song by himself, Nugie, has gathered more than 60 top Indonesian musicians and singers, to take part in a new version and video of “World, Lets Share Together”. Please listen to Nugie’s amazing song and read the English tranlsation below.

We are proud to work with Nugie on this great song and can’t wait to see the finished video.

World, Let’s Share Together

Look around you, water is fading to nowhere

Does it move your heart?

Look around you, empty eyes of hunger

Does it touch your soul?

While we are here, too greedy to consume without knowing the limit

Look around you, green forest is turning into desert

Does it touch your heart?

Look around you, they shattered to survive

Does it pound your heart?

While we have everything here,

Can we survive if we start act now

Share with the burning Earth, Earth Need us

Share with the Earth Every little thing will be felt

Share with the world

Open your eyes and heart to share

Let’s share

Reach your hands, never doubt my friend

the world is calling for us to act for Our Earth

For the sake of life we live once, for our one Earth

    I admire musicians, artists who touch upon ecological problems in their creative work. In this way more people can get concerned about environmental state.
