Beijing Olympics - In two thousand eight
We'll welcome all the nations to China
Just one human family - The earth will celebrate
For World Unity - There's nothing finer

Beijing Olympics - In two thousand eight
Promoting peace and friendship for all
The world will come together - we'll open up the gate
Come in and see the Great China Wall

Raise the banner - hear the call
Prepare for victory
The stage is set
For all the world to see

You can feel that spirit in the air
Friendly competition from every nation state
A gift from China for the world to share
One human family - the earth will celebrate
This gift from China for the world to share
