Oh, had I a golden thread
And needle so fine
I' d weave a magic strand
Of rainbow design
Of rainbow design
2-
In it I' d weave the bravery
Of the woman giving birth
In it I w'ld weave the innocence
Of children over all the earth
Of the children of our earth
3-
In it I w'ld weave the restlessness
Of man going ever forth
Trough heat of blistering desert sands
Through blizzards of the North
Through our frozen hearts
4-
Far over the waters
I w'ld reach my magic wand
Through foreign cities
To every single land
To every single land
5-
Show my brothers, my sisters
My rainbow design
Wind up the sorry world
With hand and heart and mind
Hand and heart and mind
6-
Far over the waters
I w'ld reach my magic wand
To every human being
So they w'ld understand
So they w'ld understand
Repeat 1
