The ink is black, the page is white
Together we learn to read and write
To read and write
A child is black, a child is white
The whole world look upon the sky
The beautiful sight
And now each child can do the same
This is the laws of all the land
All the land

The world is black, the world is white
It turns by day and then by night
It turns by night
And now at last we briefly see
The outward end of liberty, liberty

The world is black, the world is white
It turns by day and then by night
A child is black, a child is white
Together they go to see the land
To see the land

Yea, yeah, everybody!
This a message!
To all you people!
Peace and love!
Yea, yeah!
Everybody! Aah
