From Marajó Island to the World: Zeneida Lima Sings for the Amazon

Zeneida Lima, environmentalist, writer, composer, shaman, and founder of the Caruanas Institute. At 91 years old, she sings for the forest, for the air, for the children, and for the future of the Amazon. “We must take care of our water, of our green, because our planet is sick. We need to be careful not to run out of water, not to run out of air. Our air is polluted.” Nos precisa termos cuidado para não ficar sem água, ficar sem ar. Nosso ar está poluído.” “They’re setting fires — be careful with the forest, be careful with the forest…” Born on the world’s largest fluvial-maritime island, Marajó Island, Zeneida Lima sings to teach and to warn: The forest is burning. “The forest is burning, slowly dying away. The rainforest is disappearing — oh my God, what will happen? There’s so much deforestation, I don’t know when it will stop.” “Our air is polluted, our forest is vanishing, our rivers are drying up — it makes me want to cry. The reason for all of this is human greed, that refuses to stop and think.” The Earth is a mother. She gives life — but also asks for protection. “The Amazon is not just a large area full of trees, but a living territory, essential to the planet’s climate.” Water is the blood and memory of the Amazon. Without it, there is no life. For the environment, I wrote: “Look at the trash, look at the trash — don’t throw it on the ground! Look at the trash, look at the trash — don’t throw it on the ground! Don’t burn it, so we don’t cause pollution…” Hope is born in the hearts of children. May the song of the forest be heard before the silence of destruction. “These beautiful forests cannot disappear. Let’s take care of the water and the air.” Zeneida Lima — the ancestral voice of Marajó, echoing to the world!
