Tonight in my dream
I saw in front of me an endless wide field.
I saw millions of people there from all countries of the world.
I saw in the dream the whole of humanity united and liberated
From torture, hatred and genocide for now and forever.
I saw in my dream this army of men armed as if for battle.
Lined up in dense rows around a deep shaft.
And at a signal they threw down all their weapons.
Grenades, bombs fell 1000 meters.
Soon the shaft was filled to the brim with war machines.
And people of all races stood laughing hand in hand.
Probably everyone dreams the dream of peace and the time
is coming

Yes Susan, there are quite a few various versions including those in other languages. Check them out in the link below, many with a YouTube video link. I was a little surprised to see how many Swedish versions there are. Would love to see some of the foreign language lyrics as it appears, not unexpectedly, they are not literal translations from English.

One of the best Kingston Trio albums ever made, and ended up being my all time favorite. Amazing how timeless and relevant this song is.
Of all the various versions recorded out there, Nick Bob & John do it the best. Previous Message
