It's the 1972 Sapporo Olympics opening theme song.
You can hear the song by clicking HERE.
My English listening isn't so good, can anybody transcribe the lyrics by ears for me?

Sure, thanks for the link. And, welcome to the Mudcat.

Not much to the lyrics

Victory is Peace - John Denver

Across the seas we chase the sun
To light the true Olympic flame,
Pass it on, pass it on.

To stand beside my friends
And all the people of the world
And seek the Victory in Peace.

(bridge of "oo" and "ah")

And in the end Victory is Peace. (Repeat at end of song)

All the best,

kat
