Lyrics

[00:00.460] I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor.
[00:04.310] That's not my business.
[00:06.410] I don't want to rule or conquer anyone.
[00:08.750] I should like to help everyone if possible
[00:10.680] Jew,Gentile,black man,white.
[00:17.220] We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that.
[01:08.600] We want to live by each other's happiness - not by each other's misery.
[01:14.000] We don't want to hate and despise one another.
[01:16.150] In this world there's room for everyone
[01:17.800] and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
[01:24.270] The way of life can be free and beautiful,
[01:27.420] but we have lost the way.
[01:50.840] We think too much and feel too little.
[01:55.270] More than machinery we need humanity.
[01:58.880] More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness.
[02:03.670] Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
[02:07.840] Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
[02:10.850] millions of despairing men, women, and little children -
[02:13.810] victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
[02:18.900] To those who can hear me, I say: 'Do not despair.'
[02:22.160] The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed -
[02:25.410] the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
[02:28.910] The hate of men will pass,
[02:30.660] and dictators die,
[02:32.250] and the power they took from the people will return to the people.
[02:35.540] And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
