I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be an emperor That’s not my business I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone I should like to help everyone If possible Jew, Gentile black man white We all want to help one another Human beings are like that We want to live by each other’s happiness Not by each other’s misery We don’t want to hate and despise one another In this world there is room for everyone And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone The way of life can be free and beautiful But we have lost the way Greed has poisoned men’s souls Has barricaded the world with hate Has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed We have developed speed But we have shut ourselves in Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want Our knowledge has made us cynical Our cleverness, hard and unkind We think too much and feel too little More than machinery we need humanity More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness Without these qualities Life will be violent and all will be lost

He Kingdom of God is within man not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power The power to create machines The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure Then in the name of democracy let us use that power Let us all unite Let us fight for a new world a decent world that will give men a chance to work that will give youth a future and old age a security By the promise of these things Brutes have risen to power But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people! Now let us fight to fulfill that promise! Let us fight to free the world To do away with national barriers To do away with greed With hate and intolerance Let us fight for a world of reason A world where science and progress will lead to all men’s happiness Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite!Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
