That Magical Potion

We live our lives in good faith and in constant motion,

In search of finding that magical potion,

That would eliminate the world of wars and its destructions,

so that we fear no longer to live peacefully with all nations.

This is my dream, my hope, whether awake or sleeping,

that serenity in the world would lessen our weeping.

That all discrimination would permanently cease,

and together we would live our lives in lasting peace.

This is my dream and my constant hope to find,

that magical potion that will bring us all peace of mind.
