Lyrics
A ray of hope flitters in the sky
A glimmer of optimism appears in the sky.
A shiny star lights up way up high
A bright star illuminates the sky at a great height.
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
Everywhere in the land, a new morning is breaking.
This comes to pass when a child is born
This transformation occurs when a child is born.
A silent wish sails the seven seas
A quiet desire travels across the seven seas.
The winds have changed whisperin the trees
The winds change and communicate through the trees.
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
Doubts and uncertainties crumble, being thrown and torn down.
This comes to pass when a child is born
This change occurs when a child is born.
A rosy fume settles all around
A hopeful atmosphere surrounds everything.
You've got the feel you're on solid ground
A sense of stability and assurance is felt.
For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn
For a brief period, no one appears sad or distressed.
This comes to pass when a child is born
This positive shift occurs when a child is born.
And all of this happened
All these changes take place.
Because whe world is waiting
Because the world eagerly anticipates.
Waiting for one child
Anticipating the arrival of one special child.
Black, white, yellow, no one knows
Regardless of race (black, white, yellow), the child's identity is uncertain.
But a child that would grow up and turn tears to laughter
This child will grow up to transform sorrow into joy.
Hate to love, war to peace
Convert hate into love and bring about peace from war.
And everyone to everyone's neighbour
Encouraging unity and harmony among all people.
Misery and suffering would be forgotten forever
The end of suffering and distress will be a permanent change.
It's all a dream and illusion now
Current circumstances are viewed as unreal and deceptive.
It must come true, sometimes soon somehow
This vision will become a reality, perhaps in the near future.
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
Once again, a new morning is breaking everywhere in the land.
This comes to pass when a child is born
This transformation occurs when a child is born.
