 The ink  is black,  the page  is white,
 together  we learn  to read  and write.
 The child  is black,  the child  is white,
 the whole  world looks,  upon  the sight
 a beautiful sight.
 And now a child, can understand,
 that this  is the law, of all  the land,
all  the land.
 The world  is black,  the world  is white
 it turns  by day,  and then  by night.
 the child  is black,  the child  is white,
 together  they grow,  to see  the light,
 to see the light.
 And now a land, can plainly  see.
 that this  is a cause of liberty, liberty.
 The world  is black,  the world  is white
 it turns  by day,  and then  by night.
 the child  is black,  the child  is white,
 together  they grow,  to see  the light,
 to see the light.
