Lyrics:
The same stars hang in your sky
You, and I, just wonder why
My child must die.
Foes of the day, brothers by night
Lies wash clean in sorrow's light
Sleep now, gentle ones.
Shalom Salaam, Shalom Salaam
Shalom Salaam, Shalom Salaam
Shalom Salaam.
Bound by this great and awful scar
Our distant shores are not so far
Pray peace, be nigh.
In loss and grief, mothers unite
Make this horror pass from our sight.
No more fallen daughters and sons.
Shalom Salaam, Shalom Salaam
Shalom Salaam, Shalom Salaam
Shalom Salaam.
Shalom Salaam, Shalom Salaam
Shalom Salaam, Shalom Salaam
Shalom Salaam.
The same stars hang in your sky
You, and I, just wonder why
Our children must die.
