Full with love are their hearts,
My precious children of the world;
From the dough of essence of light,
Its leaven is brotherhood,
Let us make the everlasting bread of love;
To serve the tables of the world.
This conscience
Turns the bare mountain to a vineyard,
Becomes a sun in working hands.
That fear of war and holocaust
May never darken our sun again.
Freedom, peace, fraternity
These are the fundamental, indestructible laws.
