A hundred languages,
A hundred hands,
I can't understand it,
A hundred ways of thinking, playing and speaking,
To play and express.
The children have
One hundred languages (and more than 1,100),
But ninety-nine kinds were stolen.
School and civilization,
Separate his body and mind.
They told the children:
You don't have to think with your hands,
You don't have to act with your head,
Just listen, don't say,
You don't have to be happy to understand,
Love and surprise,
It only belongs to Easter and Christmas.
