作詞 Hal David

作曲 Burt Bacharach

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet love,

No, not just for some but for everyone

Lord, we don't need another mountain,

There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb

There are oceans and rivers enough to cross,

Enough to last till the end of time.

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet love,

No, not just for some (or just one)

Every, everyone

Lord, we don't need another meadow

There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow

There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine

Oh listen, lord, if you want to know.

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet love,

No, not just for some (or just one)

Every, everyone.

以下 misayama 翻訳（部分的に意訳しています。）

今　愛が必要よ

足りないのは、やさしい愛

今　愛が必要よ

だれでもなく、全員に

神よ、もう山はいらない

十分な数の試練がある

もう海も川もいらない

死んでも渡りきれない

今　愛が必要よ

足りないのは、やさしい愛

今　愛が必要よ

地球上の全員に

ひとり一人に

神よ、もう物はいらない

十分な数の物質がある

もうお日様も月もいらない

ねえ聴いて、わかるでしょう

今　愛が必要よ

足りないのは、やさしい愛

今　愛が必要よ

地球上の全員に

ひとり一人に
