We live in a world of strife,
Where none cares for others' life
Utopia is too high to dream for
Let's live in reality, therefore.
Let us strive for a world
Where there is not a soul hungry
Nobody lives in poverty
No one of his rights is deprived,
Where peace prevails
And all those trillions of dollars
Earmarked for arms
Are spent for the poor,
And all those army men
Till the fields and sow grains
So there is food abundant
Even for the poorest of the poor.
Let us work together for a world
Where love abounds
Among people and among nations
And hatred's abhorred,
Where everyone has a home,
A strong roof over his head,
Every child has a loving family
And none from his house is forced to flee,
Where the weakest is taken care of,
The self-esteem of all is respected,
Thorny fences don't deprive us
of our freedom, to live and let live.
