[Do they know...
It's Christmastime; there's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
But say a prayer to pray for the other ones
At Christmastime

It's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Oh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Here's to you, raise a glass for ev'ryone
Here's to them, underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world
Feed the world

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again]

{Do They Konw Its Christmas, Bob Geldof}

Ich kann mir keinen passenderen Tag vorstellen, um um Frieden zu bitten, als Weihnachten.

Dona Nobis Pacem bedeutet "Gebt uns Frieden".

Diese Welt könnte deutlich mehr Frieden brauchen. Bitte geht heute alle in Euch und fragt Euch:

"Was für eine Welt möchtet Ihr Euren Kindern übergeben? Oder Euren Enkelkindern??"

Ich wünsche mir eine friedvolle Welt!
