Conclusion
We are one
Hello, my friends from afar
Over the sea we bring the love
So hard to see you fight alone
We are one big family

Share the cure, and heal the pain
Across the borders, fight for you
We are here for each other
United, be strong
When we’re walking in the rain
Hand in hand we heal the pain
Stand together, fight as one to the end
We are one, we are one
We fight to save the world
Together we will rise and we will shine
