Walking through the crowded streets, of a market in Morocco....
Sitting on a smiling camel, in the desert of Arabia....
Chasing ’round the bamboo trees of Bandung, Indonesia....
Gathering brightly coloured leaves, in a forest of Canada....

Napping beneath the date palm shade, under blue skies of Tunisia....
Freeing kites into the night from a roof-top in Pakistan....
Planting rows of beans and maize, on a small farm in Uganda....
Laying back to count the stars, from somewhere in Afghanistan....

Sing, Children of the World! Come together and hear the call.
Sing, Children of the World! Our youth will unite us all.
Sing, Children of the World! Come together and hear the call.
Sing, Children of the World! The truth will unite us all.

Splashing through the pouring rain, in a village of Guyana....
Nibbling cakes from picnic plates, on a mountaintop in Switzerland....
Tending to a flock of sheep, down under in Australia....
Greeting morning with a prayer, on the golden Egyptian sand....

Sing, Children of the World! Come together and hear the call
Sing, Children of the World! Our youth will unite us all
Sing, Children of the World! Come together and hear the call
Sing, Children of the World! The truth will unite us all

Crying himself to sleep, with no hope left for dreaming....
Begging in the burning sun, holding out her hand....
Palms held tightly on his ears, to muffle all the screaming....
Sitting where her house once stood, trying hard to understand....

See the children of the World....
....all the children of the World
Sing for the children of the World, pray for the children of the world

Sing, Children of the World! Come together and hear the call.
Sing, Children of the World! Our youth will unite us all.
Sing, Children of the World! Come together and hear the call.
Sing, Children of the World! The truth will unite us all.
