We march today for Peace,
New millions are at our side.

The King Canutes cannot hope

To stem the surging tide.
This is our day!
Let voices swell in song,

We'll win the world for peace

We cannot wait too long.
Now is the time to march,
Our struggle must not cease, ~

We must scale the height and win—
The sun bright flower of peace.
