lyrics

Pra que tantas armas?
Pra que tantas mortes?
Pra que tanta violência
Se precisamos da paz pra nos realizar?

Pra que tanta escassez?
Pra que tanta fome?
Pra que tantas faltas
Se estamos num universo abundante?

A resposta, meu amigo, não está no vento
Ela está mais perto que pensamos
Ela está dentro de nós

Pra que tanta separação?
Pra que tanta desilusão?
Pra que tanta solidão
Se fomos feitos para estarmos juntos?

Pra que tanta ganância?
Pra que tanta cobiça?
Pra que tanto lucro
Se não vemos a presença do partilhar?

A resposta, meu amigo, não está no vento
Ela está mais perto que pensamos
Ela está dentro de nós

Precisamos enxergar
A verdade libertará
E o mundo se tornará um lugar melhor

Why so many weapons?
Why so many deaths?
Why so much violence,
Since we need peace to be fulfilled?

Why so much scarcity?
Why so much hunger?
Why so much lacking
Since we are in an abundant universe?

The answer, my friend, is not blowing in the wind
It’s closer than we think it is
It’s within us

Why so much separation?
Why so much delusion?
Why so much loneliness
Since we are all made to be together?

Why so much greed?
Why so much longing?
Why so much profit
If we don’t see sharing and compassion?

The answer, my friend, is not blowing in the wind
It’s closer than we think it is
It’s within us

We need to see
The truth will set us free
And the world will become a better place
