This is a beautifully spiritual video, that Fr. John mentioned in the comments. There is a deep connection between Christian spirituality and creation that we often miss. You don't need to understand the Serbian words to see the Gospel in the video.
Prayer of St. Basil
O God, enlarge within us the sense of fellowship with all living things, for our brothers and sisters, the inarticulate beasts, to whom You gave the earth as their home in common with us. We remember with shame that in the past we have exercised the high dominion of humanity with ruthless cruelty so that the voice of the earth, which should have gone up to You in song has become a groan of anguish and a cry of torment. May we realize that they live not for us alone, but for themselves and for You, and that they too love the sweetness of life. Amen.
