Bright blue the sky,
Sun up on high –
That was the little boy's picture.
He drew for you,
Wrote for you, too,
Just to make clear what he drew.
May there always be sunshine!
May there always be blue skies!
May there always be mummy!
May there always be me! (x2)
My little friend,
Listen, my friend,
Peace is the dream of the people.
Hearts old and young
Never have done
Singing the song you have sung.
May there always be sunshine!
May there always be blue skies!
May there always be mummy!
May there always be me!
Soldier, lad, stay!
Hear what we say –
War would make all of us losers.
Peace is our prize.
Millions of eyes
Anxiously gaze at the skies.
May there always be sunshine!
May there always be blue skies!
May there always be mummy!
May there always be me!
Down with all war!
We want no more.
People stand up for you, children.
Sing everyone –
Peace must be won,
Dark clouds must not hide the sun.
May there always be sunshine!
May there always be blue skies!
May there always be mummy!
May there always be me! (x2)
