When a Child Is Born - Kinder Lieder

A ray of hope flickers in the sky

A tiny star lights up way up high

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas

The winds of change whisper in the trees

And the wall of doubt crumbles dust and torn

This comes to pass when the child is born

The rosy view settles all around

You got the feel you’re on solid ground

For a spell or two no one seems forlorn

This comes to pass when a child is born

And all this happens because the world is waiting

Waiting for one child

Black, white, yellow

No one knows

This child who will grow up and turn tears to laughter

Hate to love, war to peace

And everyone to everyone’s neighbour

And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever

For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn

This comes to pass when a child is born

It’s all a dream an illusion now

It must come true sometime soon somehow

And all across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

This comes to pass when a child is born

This comes to pass when a child is born

This comes to pass when a child is born
