History:

This song has a controversial history.
Performed for the first time in '69 with the powerful voice of a solo singing group the military, was challenged as unpatriotic. Which later became the anthem of the peace, was sung by Rabin on the podium, the day of his assassination. Meanings! the form containing the very words of this song, stained with blood, was found in his jacket pocket.

Lyric:

SONG OF SHALOM
Let the sun rise in the east,
and light the morning sky
The finest prayers will not revive
the ones who had to die.
And those whose flames have been put out,
lie buried in the earth,
Bitter wails won't wake them up,
cannot give them rebirth.
No one can restore us now,
return us from the grave.
And here there is no use for songs of victory
and praises for the brave.
Chorus:
So go and sing a song of Shalom -
don't whisper timid prayers.
Go out and shout a song of Shalom -
so everyone can hear.

Let the sunshine weave its way
through rainbow blooms of flowers.
Don't look back towards the past -
the dead no longer ours.
Lift your eyes with hope of life,
not sighting through a gun.
Sing a song of love and joy
and not of battles won.
Don't just say "A day will come";
go out and bring that day!
It's not a dream. In all the city streets and squares,
sing "Peace is
on its way!"

Chorus

Letra:

CANCIÓN DE LA PAZ
Deja el sol salir
la mañana da su luz
El más puro de los rezos
no nos volverá

Aquel cuya vela se ha apagado
y fue enterrado en el polvo
el grito amargo no le despertará
y no lo traerá de vuelta

Nadie no nos sacará
de un foso muerto y oscuro
aqui, ni la alegria de la victoria
ni las canciones de alabanza ayudarán.

Tan solo canta una cancion por la Paz
no susurres una plegaria
Solo canta una cancion por la Paz
con un grito fuerte

Deja el sol entrar
a través de las flores
no mires para atrás
deja ir a esos que salieron

Alza tus ojos con esperanza
no a través de las miras de los rifles
Canta una cancion por el amor
y no por la guerras

No digas que el día vendrá
traelo a ese día
porque no es un sueño y en todas las plazas
de la ciudad alienta
por la PAZ

  • The point is that there is no true victory in war. The only true victory is when peace exists, so we should sing songs of peace.

  • What is the idea of this video?

  • @GODLEWICZ Un jour, il aura la paix. Be ezrat ha Shem. :)

  • Le début de la séquence est intenable pour quelqu’un comme moi qui ai vécu cette période, c'est pourquoi j'ai voté négatif!.

  • What?
