What kind of world is it my friend
that little children see?
I wonder if they see God first
because they just believe?
Do they see strength in caring eyes
who watch them as they play -
or maybe love through gentle hands
that guide them on their way?
Do you think they dream of future times
when they would be a king -
or just enjoy their present life
while with their friends they sing?
Do they see the acts of kindness
done for people who are poor?
Is the very best in everyone
what they are looking for?
And when the day is over,
as they close their eyes to sleep,
do they look forward to tomorrow
with its promises to keep?
If this is what the children see,
then it should be no surprise,
the world would be a better place
if we all had children's eyes.
我的朋友,
在那些孩子們的眼里這是怎樣的一個(gè)世界,
是不是他們能更先看見上帝因?yàn)樗麄兊男恼\?
他們是不是看見
當(dāng)他們玩耍時(shí),注視他們的慈目里所透著的力量,
還是,
指引著他們成長的那一雙雙溫和的手掌中所表達(dá)的愛?
你是否認(rèn)為,
他們也會(huì)夢想未來,
夢想著自己成為王者那一天
還是,
他們只沉浸享受著現(xiàn)在
朋友們一起快樂歌唱的生活?
他們是不是能看見
去施于親切和仁慈給那些窮人
是不是就是每個(gè)人心中
尋找的那片美好
當(dāng)每一天結(jié)束
他們合眼入夢時(shí)
他們是不是珍藏著那些承諾
去期待明天的到來?
如果這就是孩子們眼里的
那么真的沒什么可驚呀的了.
這個(gè)世界真應(yīng)該變成一個(gè)更美好的天地
如果我們能有孩子們那般的眼睛的話
