War

Verse 1

Until the philosophy which hold one race superior

And another

Inferior

Is finally

And permanently

Discredited

And abandoned

Everywhere is war

Me say war

Verse 2

That until there no longer

First class and second class citizens of any nation

Until the colour of a man's skin

Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes

Me say war

Verse 3

That until the basic human rights

Are equally guaranteed to all

Without regard to race

Dis a war

Verse 4

That until that day [until that day]

The dream of lasting peace

World citizenship

Rule of international morality

Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued

But never attained

Now everywhere is war - war

Verse 5

War in the east

War in the west

War up north

War down south

War - war

Rumors of a war
