Lyrics:

I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an Emperor - that's not my business
I don't want to rule or conquer anyone
I should like to help everyone, if possible - Jew, gentile, black man, white
We all want to help one another; human beings are like that

We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery
We don't want to hate and despise one another
In this world there's room for everyone and the good earth is rich
And can provide for everyone
The way of life can be free and beautiful
But we have lost the way

We think too much and feel too little
More than machinery, we need humanity
More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost

Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men, women, and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people
To those who can hear me I say, 'Do not despair'
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress
The hate of men will pass and dictators die; and the power they took from the people will return to the people and so long as men die, liberty will never perish
