Oh that wars may cease!

Oh that Peace may reign!

Oh that men may seize

Brutes who are the bane

of Societal Peace

so that Peace and Love

may never be lost

nor our fragile trust

become precarious.

May our many foes

be saved from death's throes,

may Tanks be Ploughshares

and Guns Harvesters.

May our daily cares

on neighbours be cast,

may all our Youngsters

cease evil to learn

by working to earn

their wages by day.

Oh may the boisterous

Child be not consumed

by his fatal fall!

Oh that People may

seek good roles to play

in a World so small

and shaped like a Ball.

Oh that we may fast

comprehend the times

as the Clock bell chimes

and all our callous

deeds be not resumed.
