Remember, We Are One

We all drink from one water
We all breathe from one air
We rise from one ocean
And we live under one sky

Remember
We are one

The new born baby cries the same
The laughter of children is universal
Everyone's blood is red
And our hearts beat the same song

Remember
We are one

We are all bothers and sisters
Only one family, only one earth
Together we live
And together we die

Remember
We are one

Remember
We are one

Peace be on you
Brothers and Sisters
Peace be on you.
