Do they know it's Christmas?
 Band Aid

It's Christmastime
There's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime
We let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy

Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones at Christmastime it's hard
But when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring
There are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God, it's them instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Ooh Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all

( Here's to you ) raise a glass for everyone
( Here's to them ) underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmastime at all
Feed the world, feed the world, feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again

他们知道现在是圣诞节吗?
援非联合乐团

圣诞时节已来到
不要害怕
在这圣诞时节
我们迎接光明,驱走阴暗
在我们丰饶的世界里
展现欢乐的笑容

在这圣诞时节,张开双臂拥抱世界
但是做个祷告....
在圣诞时节为别人祷告并不容易
但当你寻欢作乐时
在你的窗外有另一个世界
那是一个忧惧与惊恐的世界
那儿唯一流动的水是刺痛的泪水
那儿响起的圣诞铃声
是死亡的钟声
今晚感谢上帝,是他们代替了你受苦

今年的圣诞节,非洲不下雪
他们今年最好的礼物就是活着
那儿寸草不生
没有雨水,河水不再流
他们知道现在是圣诞节吗?

(敬你!)为大家举杯
(敬他们!)在那灼热的太阳下
他们知道现在是圣诞节吗?
救助这世界,救助这世界,救助这世界
让他们再次明白圣诞节到了

救助这世界
让他们再次明白已经是圣诞节了

数十位巨星联合慈善义唱的歌曲,最著名的要属美国歌手的"We are the world",但那首歌曲的诞生灵感,却是源自于英国的这首"Do they know it's Christmas?"。
 为了援助非洲饥荒难民,当时英国歌坛的大牌歌手如文化俱乐部、杜兰杜兰合唱团、保罗扬、菲尔柯林斯等几乎全员到齐,由于歌曲的性质及首次创举,单曲发行后自然是轰动全球,并且启发了世界各地的音乐工作者,各类的慈善义唱风气至今依然不息。
