Across the silent winter sky, a star begins to shine,
A gentle call for humankind to walk in peace divine.
Let every heart be open wide, let every sorrow cease,
For Christmas brings a tender hope, a universal peace.
May kindness be our guiding light in every land and sea,
Uniting souls across the world in shared humanity.
Let hatred melt like morning frost beneath the sun above,
And may our days be shaped anew by understanding, love.
Wherever children laugh and dream, let safety be their right,
And may all nations learn to hold compassion as their light.
Let strangers greet as brothers do, with warmth that does not tire,
For love is born in every soul, a sacred, glowing fire.
On this bright day of joy and grace, let every voice proclaim:
That peace is not a distant star, but lives in every name.
So let us build a gentler world, where none are left to suffer—
A world that echoes Christmas truth: Love Mankind, Love Our Father.
