On March 23rd, Anita McKone sang her song, "Nonviolence they choose for Afghanistan". it was performed over the phone to the people for whom she wrote it - the Afghan Youth Peace Volunteers - as part of a farewell to international delegates visiting Kabul.
The audio quality on the phone wasn't the best, but it will give an idea of how it was received.
'NONVIOLENCE THEY CHOOSE FOR AFGHANISTAN'
Dedicated to the Afghan Youth Peace Volunteers
Anita McKone
So many fathers are gone, lost to the fighting
What can they do? What can children do?
But work so hard to survive in Afghanistan
Guns, bombs, grenades, soulless machines
What can they do? What can they do?
Nonviolence they choose for Afghanistan
Threatened by those with fear in their hearts
What can they do? What can they do?
But risk their lives for the peace in Afghanistan
The land is degraded to dust and sand
What can they do? What can they do?
But nurture the life of Afghanistan
Send them our light
Send them our hope
Send them our love
Send them the strength to carry on
Nearly all trust is gone, broken by fear
What can they do? What can they do?
But stand bravely with love in Afghanistan
Their courage and faith speak to us all
What can we do? What can we do?
But stand up for peace in Afghanistan
What can we do? What can we do?
No more war in our name in Afghanistan
Let them send us their light
Send us their hope
Send us their love
Send us the strength to carry on
And we'll send them our light
Send them our hope
Send them our love
Send them the strength to carry on
Nonviolence they choose for Afghanistan
Nonviolence they ask for Afghanistan
