UNDER ONE SKY by KATHARINE MURDOCH DAVIS

First Line: BROWN MAN, BLACK MAN, YELLOW MAN AND I
Last Line: BROWN MAN, BLACK MAN, YELLOW MAN AND I.
Subject(s): BROTHERHOOD;
Brown man, black man, yellow man and I
All of us depending on the sun and the rain,
Knowing but one thing -- some day we die --
Moulded by laughter, by love and by pain;

Bearing or blaming our share of the load,
Calling at times for help from on high,
Singing and stumbling down the long rough road,
Brown man, black man, yellow man and I.
