Oh, Had I A Golden Thread

1-

Oh, had I a golden thread

And needle so fine

I' d weave a magic strand

Of rainbow design

Of rainbow design



2-

In it I' d weave the bravery

Of the woman giving birth

In it I w'ld weave the innocence

Of children over all the earth

Of the children of our earth



3-

In it I w'ld weave the restlessness

Of man going ever forth

Trough heat of blistering desert sands

Through blizzards of the North

Through our frozen hearts



4-

Far over the waters



I w'ld reach my magic wand

Through foreign cities

To every single land

To every single land



5-

Show my brothers, my sisters

My rainbow design

Wind up the sorry world

With hand and heart and mind

Hand and heart and mind



6-

Far over the waters

I w'ld reach my magic wand

To every human being

So they w'ld understand

So they w'ld understand



Repeat 1
