English Original:

 EARTH 
 SYNERGY 
 2000:
'A 
Giant Leap 
for Humankind'
 On Earth Day 2000, /
 nations of the world 
.....come together as one, /
 in body, mind and spirit, /
..... to stand in reverence
.....before the rest /
 of the bio-diverse citizens 
.....and elements / 
 of our living planet Gaia, /
 to take full responsibility / 
 for past and present 
 ....environmental destruction, /
 and to lovingly commit /
 a conscious synergy of efforts /
 to rescue and heal, 
.....conserve and exalt, /
 our Mother Earth. //

 This is a giant leap 
.....for Humankind /
 right back to the bosom 
.....of our home planet, /
 undoubtedly a euphoric 
.....historic event /
 that heralds a new way of life 
.....for all Earthlings, /
 as we enter the new millennium. //

 Amen.  ///

EARTH SYNERGY 2000:
'Et Gigantisk skridt
 for enneskeheden'.
 Paa "Jord" Dag 2000, /
 finder verdens nationer sammen som en, /
 i krop, sjael og kraft, /
 for at staa i aerboedighed foran resten  /
 af de bio-forskellige borgere og elementer  /
 paa vores levende planet Gaia, / 
 for at tage fuldt ansvar  /
 for tidligere og nuvaerende milijoemaessige 
     oedelaeggelser,  /
 og for at kaerligt forpligte /
 en bevidst synergi af indsats  /
 for at redde og kurere, bevare og forstaerke  /
 vores "Moder Jord"  //

 Dette er et gigantisk skridt for menneskeheden  /
 helt tilbage til vores hjemme planets skoed /
 utaenkelig en euforisk historisk begivenhed /
 som forkynder en ny maade at leve paa for hele 
    jordens befolkning  /
 mens vi traedder ind i et nyt aartusinde. //

Amen.  ///
