手を動かして、
器に水を汲んで喉が乾いている人に。
動物や植物、大地にも。
手を動かして、
食べ物をつくってわけあうこと。
ペンをとって詩やお話をかいたり、
筆をとって絵をかいたり、
楽器を弾いたり、
みんなの心が幸せになるでしょう。
手は
１３，０００発の核爆弾や
１０億の銃や
２６００の爆弾を落とす飛行機や
何十万の戦車を作るために
あるのではありません。
それを設計した心と手
それらを工場で製造した心と手
それらを売って大儲けした心と手
それを使って人を殺した心と手は
幸せでしょうか？
この大きな生命体の中の一つとして生まれてきたのなら
生命体で共に生きるものたちを破壊するために
手を使わないでください。

For animals and plants
Use your hands
Cook and share food
Write poems and stories

13,000 nuclear bombs
One billion guns, one billion guns
2,600 airplanes that drop bombs

Hundreds of thousands of tanks
The mind and hands that designed them
The mind and hands that manufactured them in a factory
The mind and hands that have made a fortune by selling them
The mind and hands that used it to kill people.
Where is happiness?

Each life is preciously given as one of the large organism
Hands are not made to destroy those who are living together
