【歌曲背景】
公益歌曲“We're The World”(《天下一家》),是由邁克爾·杰克遜和萊昂納爾·里奇共同譜寫,由美國45位歌星聯合演唱,昆西·瓊斯負責制作。

這次大型搖滾樂義演活動獲得了巨大的成功,一共為掙扎在饑荒中的非洲災民募集到5000多萬美元的巨款。搖滾歌星們完成了政治家喋喋不休的演說和國際會議沒完沒了的討論所根本完成不了的壯舉!?

【歌曲欣賞】We're The World(天下一家)

There comes a time when we should hear a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying?
And its time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
我們聽到了一聲召喚,
全世界必須團結在一起!
不斷有人死去,
是時候向這些生命伸出援助之手,
生命是世界上最珍貴的。

We can't go on pretending day by day?
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of God's great big family ?
And the truth, you know,?
Love is all we need
我們不能日復一日地幻想,
總有別人會一瞬間讓世界改變。
我們都是上帝大家庭的一員,
我們都知道,
我們需要的就是愛。

We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day?
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
天下一家,我們都是上帝的孩子。?
我們要創(chuàng)造光輝燦爛的明天,
所以現在我們就要付出。
這是我們的選擇,
我們在自我拯救。
要創(chuàng)造一個更美好的世界,
要靠你和我。

Send them your heart ?
So they'll know that someone cares ?
And their lives will be stronger and free?
As God has shown us by turning stones to bread?
So we all must lend a helping hand
用心幫助他們,?
他們會知道還有人關心,
他們的生命會更堅強,更自由。?
上帝把石頭變成面包來給我們啟示,?
所以我們必須伸出援助之手。

We are the world, we are the children?
We are the ones who make a brighter day?
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
天下一家,我們都是上帝的孩子。?
我們要創(chuàng)造光輝燦爛的明天,?
所以現在我們就要付出。
這是我們的選擇,
我們在自我拯救。
要創(chuàng)造一個更美好的世界,
要靠你和我。?

When you're down and out,?
There seems no hope at all?
But if you just believe ?
There's no way we can fall ?
Let us realize that a change can only come ?
When we stand together as one ?
當你沮喪絕望,
就看不到任何希望。?
但是如果你堅定信念,
我們就不會失敗。
要知道只要團結在一起,
世界才能改變。

We are the world, we are the children?
We are the ones who make a brighter day?
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
天下一家,我們都是上帝的孩子。?
我們要創(chuàng)造光輝燦爛的明天,?
所以現在我們就要付出。
這是我們的選擇,
我們在自我拯救。
要創(chuàng)造一個更美好的世界,
要靠你和我。?
