Offer a Song
This is a call for songs, nursery rhymes, and lullabies from around the world for the children of Gaza.
Remember the songs which soothed you as a baby, as a child. Share them with us. Recordings, transcriptions, titles: any way is welcomed. What comes to mind as you remember the tune? Or are the lyrics the magic ingredient? Share the songs that soothe the children you care for.
We are a group of peacemakers members of Zen Peacemakers International, gathering songs from all cultures to soothe the babies and children who suffer at the hands of our mad wars.
