Shalom Salaam Lyrics

Ziggy Marley

Lost am I in my memories of my forefathers' legacy,
I am one of you, you are one of me.
Why don't we, set the people free?
How I grieve to see fulfilment of prophecy,
Naive of me to think things could change.
While men remain the same, so war will be for me every day.
No peace, no peace for the children of Israel.
Gaza cries all the tears from her eyes.
Will there be no peace for the children of Palestine?

Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam, yea.

Who will take the blame, for the blood of my children?
To who does vengeance belong? To no one, no one!
We're dying from tanks and suicide bombs,
The only answer is to live as one.
And justice will come for my sons,
And just will come for my sons.

Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom, yea.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam, ey.

And I wonder why and I wonder who,
And I wonder what is in the heart of you?
And I wonder why and I wonder who,
And I wonder what is in the heart of you?

Children are children, no matter colour or faith,
And I wonder if now, history will teach us again.

So war will be for me every day.
No peace, no peace for the children of Israel.
Gaza cries all the tears from her eyes.
Will there be no peace for the children of Palestine?

And justice will come for my sons.

Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
Shalom salaam, shalom salaam, shalom salaam.
