Chorus:
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey Hey, Hey Hey Heveinu X2
Bring it on bring it on heveinu shalom Aleichem (x4)
No matter the language, religion or race
We can all agree that no one wants to face
War crimes and hatred they must cease
We’ve got to pray for shalom pray for peace
Chorus
Remember back to 1948
We danced and we sang ‘til it was so late
Finally we had a land of our own
A place to build our future a place to call home
Chorus
Bridge:
What do we want? (shalom)
When do we want it? (achshav)
What do we want? (shalom)
When do we want it? (achshav)
*Shalom=Peace, Achshav=Now, Heiveinu Shalom Alechem=Peace to those who come
