The song was composed in 1967 to invite reconciliation and peace from civil unrest happening in the United States. Twenty years after, the song was used for the movie, Good Morning Vietnam by Robin Williams. In 2011, David Attenborough read poem like, "What a Wonderful World" for BBC's Planet Earth. Beautiful!
Would it make you laugh to see birds instead of people in front of a shopping mall? (can't be their cars)
Here is the lyrics of the song:
What a Wonderful World
(Words and Music by George David Weiss and Bob Thiele)
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shakin’ hands, sayin’ “How do you do?”
They’re really saying “I love you”
I hear babies cryin’, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Oh yeah
If people can be contented with simple joy, for the world is grand as is, mother earth is so giving and beautiful, truly a wonderful world. No to hatred, no war, no discrimination. Love and Live.
