    Astrid Bouwmeister, mijn vader vond dit een prachtig lied. Had mooie herinneringen aan de diensttijd in Indonesië ondanks de treurige omstandigheden waartoe dit had geleid. We hebben het gedraaid terwijl hem naar zien laatste rustplaats hebben begeleid. Voor mij blijft het zijn lied.

    We have to watch out before long this song will be the only thing we remember about this great animal the eliphant. Still it is hunted for its magnificent teeth and still ppl buy the ivory figurines you can make from it. Don't let our hunger for money kill all those awesome beasts. We owe it to our selfs to let those gentle giants survive the 21st century.

      Moreover, the images this song paints are becoming painfully clear what a heavy footprint man has left on earth, since thanks to the corona crisis, we see for the first time that the water in Venice can be clear as glass and the Himalaya mountain tops can be seen from below...

    “Tell me”, said the elephant, tell me brothers if you can
    Why all the world is full of creatures, yet we grow in fear of man”
    “Tell me,” said the elephant, “tell me why this has to be?
    We have to run from man the hunter, never safe and never free”
    People kill without regret, although they fly by jumbo jet
    Let the world of men remember, let the children not forget!
    Gentle is the elephant, pulling loads and everything
    We love to hear the children laughing, When we’re in the circus ring

    Happy was the elephant, happy was his jungle life
    And then they came the cruel hunter, with the rifle and the knife
    Chorus
    (Spoken)
    Listen, please listen, said the elephant
    If we want the world we know to stay alive,
    then man and beast we must work together
    And together we will survive!
    “Listen,” said the elephant, “It’s conservation time,
    So take the warning when we trumpet for the future of mankind!”
