Peace Upon the World
A song made by Mthobisi Silinda
Oh, Jah bless the children...
Peace upon the world, yeah.
Inshallah.
We praise the same one God, but we tear the world apart
Divided by the lines we draw, breaking every heart
We say we love all people, we want to live as one
But look at all the damage and the evil we have done
In the name of religion, they're dividing up the land
When we should be walking together, hand in hand.
But today the children fall, and nobody takes the blame
From Palestine to Lebanon, we cry out in pain
Iraq, Somalia, Syria, Afghanistan, we see
Ethiopia and Iran, let the children all be free
Inshallah, let there be peace upon the world
Alhamdulillah, let the banner of love be unfurled.
No one takes responsibility for the innocent lives lost
We play these political games, but do we count the cost?
A child is a child, no matter where they go
We need to stop the weeping, let the healing waters flow
From the East to the West, let the violence now cease
Every nation, every tribe, living inna peace.
But today the children fall, and nobody takes the blame
From Palestine to Lebanon, we cry out in pain
Iraq, Somalia, Syria, Afghanistan, we see
Ethiopia and Iran, let the children all be free
Inshallah, let there be peace upon the world
Alhamdulillah, let the banner of love be unfurled.
Peace upon the world, yeah.
No more tears, no more pain.
Alhamdulillah.
One love, one destiny.
