Lyrics
This is my home
The land of my mother
The place I play
With sisters and brothers

The trees are rooted
In the ground beneath
Take away the violence
Give the earth back its peace

This is our world
Our common salvation
It knows no borders
It serves no nation

The same sun shines equally
On those beneath
Take away the violence
Give the earth back its peace

There's fire in the ground
In the space between the trees
In the forests and fields
On pathways,in dreams

The stars are whispering
To the ground beneath
Take away the darkness
Give the earth back its peace

Who painted the green grass red with danger
Who coloured the big sky blue with sorrow
A strong wind carrying fear and anger
Came and went and stole tomorrow

This is my home
The land of my mother
The place I play
With sisters and brothers

The trees are rooted
In the ground beneath
Take away the violence
Give the earth back its peace

The same sun shines equally
On those beneath
Take away the darkness
Give the earth back its peace

Like trees we're rooted
In the ground beneath
Take away the violence
Give the earth back its peace
Give the earth back its peace
