We Have A
Dream

He:
This is our land, our birthright; The dead are martyred here.
The legacy they left is one of bitterness and fear.
She:
Our fathers feed the anger; Our mothers feed the grief.
And we are left to suckle hope, and pray for some relief.
CHORUS
We have a dream – together; that we will fight no more.
The world will join the dancing as we mark the end of war.
He: Our prophets tell the story;
She: Our people pay the price.
Both: Our children take their final breath, and meet in Paradise.
CHORUS
BRIDGE (both sing)
I feel my heart is bursting; Let peace take root and bloom.
When darkness is descending; Throw light in every room.
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK and CHORUS
CODA:
The world will join the dancing as we mark the end of war.
