Little child dry your crying eyes
How can I explain the fear you feel inside
Cause you were born into this evil world
Where man is killing man and no one knows just why
What have we become just look what we have done
All that we destroyed you must build again

CHORUS
When the children cry let them know we tried
Cause when the children sing then the new world begins

Little child you must show the way
To a better day for all the young
Cause you were born for all the world to see
That we all can live with love and peace
No more presidents and all the wars will end
One united world under God

CHORUS
When the children cry let them know we tried
Cause when the children sing then the new world begins

What have we become just look what we have done
All that we destroyed you must build again
No more presidents and all the wars will end
One united world under God

When the children cry let them know we tried
When the children fight let them know it ain't right
When the children pray let them know the way
Cause when the children sing then the new world begins

煽情，我不喜欢煽情的曲子，但是我不得不为这首曲子所吸引。
开头吉他的拨弦沉静而有力，伤感而又从容，而当主唱用沙哑的嗓音唱出第一句歌词时，我知道我已经喜欢上它了。战争，似乎庄严而神圣，但在每一个活生生的不得不亲身承受的人看来，那意味着灾难；天真无邪的孩子一定睁大双眼，疑惑地看着这场大人们的游戏，为什么要有战争？他们以后可能会明白的，因为这个世界从来就没有停止过战争和流血。
人生来是自私和无情的，然而同时也有同情和良知的因子。人从来就是矛盾的产物，一元论的人本的论断终究不会自圆其说。（其实区分这些本性好或者坏的也是人自己，本来它们是一体的）人们区分了人本性中的善和恶，如同认出了叶子的正面和背面，然而无论如何，叶子的背面始终存在，而且正面越大，背面随之增大。
回到这首曲子，人们不可能完全消除罪恶，但却可以永远存有希望，Cause when the children sing then the new world begins
