A RATIONAL ANTHEM
(same tune)
Long live the human race
with Earth our dwelling-place
shining in space.
Past national vanity
and war’s insanity
in love and peace humanity
shall life embrace.
People of every land
join hand in human hand
and take a stand!
Let solidarity
replace barbarity;
let children grow in clarity
to understand.
Hail to our shining Earth!
Greet our new planet’s birth
with songs and mirth.
When peace and human rights
let the whole world unite,
together we’ll use all our might
to banish dearth!
Long live the human race
with Earth our dwelling-place
shining in space.
Past national vanity
and war’s insanity
in love and peace humanity
shall life embrace!
