One Crane

A song for Sadako.  The story of Sadako is known by people all over the world.  If you don't know it, a librarian could help you to find a book that tells the story. You can add your own words in place of crane, for the things that help to make peace.

One crane, two cranes, three cranes, four,
We can make an end to war.
Five cranes, Six cranes, Seven cranes, eight,
We can change, it's not too late.

Circle of our cranes around the world
for every boy and every girl.
Circle of our cranes from hand to hand
for every home in every land.

One song, one friend, one.....
