World Book Day lyrics
A Greek philosopher once said what everyone knows
That a room without books is like a body without a soul
So turn away today from your phone and your TV too
A make today a different and memorable day for you
Feed your soul and feed your mind
It will expand your imagination you will find
New worlds hiding on every page
A world of discovery for every age
Every subject under the sun
Is there waiting to be discovered by everyone
Reading and learning is so much fun
You can read things over and over again from page one
Reading improves children’s lives
It opens their eyes to the world outside
A new world right there before their eyes
A world full of mystery, laughter and surprise
With audio books the words you can hear
You can give book tokens as a present idea
Encourage the young to read every day
It develops their mind and imagination in positive ways
From your home and all the way to Rabat
People are reading for pleasure that’s a fact
From novels to comics to audiobooks and more
Waiting for you on the shelves, who knows what’s in store?
Words have wings and they can fly
The importance of books will never die
Words have wings and they can fly
The importance of books will never die
Open your eyes and your mind
And if you seek, you shall surely find
Open your eyes and your mind
And if you seek, you shall surely find
