We're The World 天下一家
There comes a time when we hear a certain call 我们听到了一声召唤,
When the world must 1)come together as one 全世界必须团结在一起!
There are people dying 不断有人死去,
And its time to 2)lend a hand to life 是时候向这些生命伸出援助之手,
The greatest gift of all 生命是世界上最珍贵的。
We can't go on pretending day by day 我们不能日复一日地幻想,
That someone, somewhere will soon 3)make a change 总有别人会一瞬间让世界改变。
We are all a part of God's great big family 我们都是上帝大家庭的一员,
And the truth, you know, 我们都知道,
Love is all we need 我们需要的就是爱。
We are the world, 4)we are the children 天下一家,我们都是上帝的孩子。
We are the ones who make a brighter day 我们要创造光辉灿烂的明天,
So let's start giving 所以现在我们就要付出。
There's a choice we're making 这是我们的选择,
We're saving our own lives 我们在自我拯救。
It's true we'll make a better day 要创造一个更美好的世界,
Just you and me 要靠你和我。
Send them your heart 用心帮助他们,
So they'll know that someone cares 他们会知道还有人关心,
And their lives will be stronger and free 他们的生命会更坚强,更自由。
As God has shown us by 5)turning stones to bread 上帝把石头变成面包来给我们启示,
So we all must lend a helping hand 所以我们必须伸出援助之手。
We are the world, we are the children 天下一家,我们都是上帝的孩子。
We are the ones who make a brighter day 我们要创造光辉灿烂的明天,
So let's start giving 所以现在我们就要付出。

We're saving our own lives 我们在自我拯救。
It's true we'll make a better day 要创造一个更美好的世界,
Just you and me 要靠你和我。
When you're 6)down and out, 当你沮丧绝望,
There seems no hope at all 就看不到任何希望。
But if you just believe 但是如果你坚定信念,
There's no way we can fall 我们就不会失败。
Let us realize that a change can only come 要知道只要团结在一起,
When we stand together as one 世界才能改变。
