VERSE
Since The Dawn Of Time, We’ve Been Waging War.
And Hiding Our Love, Behind Locked Doors.
Using Fear To Dominate And Control.
We Have Been Fighting Against Our Very Own Soul
Now We Are On The Brink Of A New Frontier,
And The Power Of Peace Is Becoming Clear.
It’s Going To Take All Our Courage To Make A New Start.
It’s Going To Take A Revolution Of The Heart.
CHORUS
Shalom, Alackhem (“Live In Peace” In Hebrew)
Asalaam a-ley-khoom (“Live In Peace” In Arabic}
VERSE
It's a new kind of freedom We've never known before A
deeper understanding Because we know a lot more We just keep going We
don't look back Stay focused on the light And you'll stay on track
It's a new kind of love Stronger than before Flowing like
a river Right to the core We're finding our freedom We're finding our
peace We'll find it together And the wars will cease
Shalom Peace In Hebrew
The World Peace Song Shalom, Asalaam

People have to be open to all possiblities of anything that can help peace. Music will help. Music is one thing that everyone in the world has in common. Everyone wants to live in peace. Communication is a major obsticle to Peace and through music we can communicate.
I have had translated & re-recorded The World Peace Song - Shalom, Asalaam into the 17 major languages of the world. Shalom means Peace in Hebrew, Asalaam means Peace in Arabic. This song symbolically unites the Hebrew & Arab worlds through music. A CD released in every major language of the World has never been done before. I have been working with people from all nationalities and the support on this project is beyond belief. Everybody wants to help. Everyone, for different reasons, says this song is so appropraite for our current World situation and is becoming more appropriate everyday. If we get everyone in the world singing about peace, unity will be closer to becoming a reality. Maybe a World wide World Peace Song Day, where everyone on the same day sings the World Peace Song in their language.
People from all over the world will be able submit translations of their language to this site where it will be posted. I hope to have it translated into every language of the World. Along with rap, reggae, country, American Indian, etc... It is amazing how much all the languages of the world sound so similar. Japanese sounds like Italian, etc...
