Thread Name: Origin: When every woman ... (Nairobi Peace Song)
Subject: Lyr Add: NAIROBI PEACE SONG
If every woman in the world had her mind set on freedom
If every woman in the world dreamed a sweet dream of peace
If every woman, of every nation,
Young and old, each generation
held her arms out in the name of love,
There would be no more war!

If every man in the world had his mind set on freedom
If every man in the world dreamed a sweet dream of peace
If every man, of every nation,
Young and old, each generation
held his arms out in the name of love,
There would be no more war!

If all the children in the world had their minds set on freedom
If all the children in the world dreamed a sweet dream of peace
If all the children, of every nation,
Young and old, each generation
held their arms out in the name of love,
There would be no more war!

If all the people in the world had their minds set on freedom
If all the people in the world dreamed a sweet dream of peace
If all the people, of every nation,
Young and old, each generation
holds hands together in the name of love,
There would be no more war!

As sung by Seattle Peace Chorus who call it Nairobi Peace Song. Still no author tho.
