They have chosen to read a poem written by the Spanish author Gloria Fuertes which pleads for peace entitled Solo tres letras (Only Three letters).
This is the translation of the poem:
ONLY THREE LETTERS
Only three letters, three letters nothing more.
only three letters that you will forever learn.
Only three letters to write PEACE (In Spanish is PAZ).

The P, the A and the Z, only three letters.
Only three letters, three letters nothing more,
to sing for peace, to make peace.
The P for people, the A for amour, love
and the Z of “zapphire”/sapphire or zagal/lad.
Of sapphire for a blue world,
lad for a boy like you.
No need to be wise
nor have bayonets,
if you learn only these three letters well,
use them when you become older and there will be PEACE on earth.

The podcast ends with the students saying peace in diferente languages.
