about

In 2005, the Consul General of Israel to New England invited us to perform several concerts with the aim of helping the Jewish community reach out and connect with families from different backgrounds. This was one of the songs Guy prepared for the occasion. Sheva’s Salaam had been an anthem of the peace movement in Israel, and Guy added new music and words.

The bass drum sound is the gourd of the berimbau thumping against Guy's chest.

lyrics

(Sheva’s words:)
Peace will come to us.
Peace will come to us and to all.
Salaam! Peace be with us and all the world.
Salaam, salaam!

(Guy’s words:)
Peace may not come in my lifetime.
But it will in yours.
It may not come from governments.
So it will have to come from us.
A day will come….
