Before humanity is on earth
No hate, no wars, no ignorance, no force
Only one with mother earth
No sorrow escorts us from our birth
Be a bridge over the river of love
From justice to happiness
Set up by the hands of freedom
From justice to happiness
Set up by the hands of freedom
Set up by the hands of freedom
Yet wishes could be true
Don't turn away, it could be you
The answer will roar at us
If we listen into ourselves
We twaddle since centuries
About justice and peace
We're living in a material world
Supported through avarice
Mendacity is our life
We conceal love and light
Today we're abusing
Animals and nature
To enrich ourselves
To enrich ourselves
We're sleeping so deep
While the bomb is ticking
We pity ourselves
While the fear is kicking
[2x]
Now it's time for the world
To see a man with open eyes
Now it's time to realize
We tell ourselves the best of lies
Now it's time to see the fact
We all are the unity
Now it's time for us
To deliberate our aim
To deliberate our aim
No hate, no wars, no ignorance
No politics, no pain, no force
No weapons, no oppression, no sorrow
No chemicals, no dust, no leaders
No violence, no dust, no leaders
No leaders
Now it's time for the world
To see a man with open eyes
Now it's time to realize
We tell ourselves the best of lies
Now it's time to see the fact
We all are the unity
Now it's time for us
To deliberate our aim
[2x]
To deliberate our aim
To deliberate our aim
To deliberate our aim
Now it's time
Now! Now! Now!
See that aim
See that aim
See that aim
Now it's time - for the world
To see a man with open eyes
Oh, with open eyes
