There is life around us everywhere
It has always been this way
And when we think about our futures
Our humanity must come into play
So many say there is a scarcity
Be very careful, you may fail
Play it safe, avoid the unfamiliar
You can not be sure you will prevail
In a world of opportunities
Concerns our hopes and dreams deprive
So many fears, so many doubts
Are we here to live or just survive?
Look at the children full of wonder
So alive in every way
Passion for life expressed so fully
With the dawning of each new day
The freedom to play and grow
Without boundaries, not stopped by fears
Boundless joy and self-expression
Not diminished by their tears
Constant adventure and excitement
Experienced every single day
Play till you win, so very natural
Failure is merely part of play
We could relearn from the children
How it is to really live
Imagine if the beautiful child within us
To all the world we would choose to give
The magic of life lives within the children
In every village throughout the world
A life of miracles is possible
For every ageless boy and girl
