Tigers

I am great and beautiful tiger
I wonder why people hunt me
I hear the sweet sound of the jungle beneath my feet
I see my home disappearing
I want to be understood
I am a great and beautiful tiger

I pretend my species is not dwindling
I feel sad to know it is
I touch the ground beneath my feet
I worry I will meet a human
I cry when I lose my home
I am a great and beautiful tiger


I understand why I am feared
I say they should not fear me
I dream of a better place
I try to protect my family
I hope the world will change
I am a great and beautiful tiger
