about

2. Oseh Shalom
Texts and melody adapted by Galeet Dardashti
The Hebrew lyrics of this piece combine meditations on peace found in several beautiful Jewish prayers, while the Persian lyrics are from the Book of Isaiah. The melody draws from a haunting Kurdish folk song, Yavaran.

lyrics

May the one who creates peace on high bring peace to us, to all Israel, and to all those who dwell on earth.
Grant peace to the world with goodness and blessing.

May wars and bloodshed be abolished from the world.


‎עוֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו
‎ הוּא יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵינוּ
‎וְעַל כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעַל יוֺשְׁבֵי תֵבֶל
‎שִׂים שָׁלוֹם בָּעוֹלָם
‎ טוֹבָה וּבְרָכָה

‎שֶׁתְּבַטֵּל מִלְחָמוֹת וּשְׁפִיכוּת דָּמִים מִן הָעוֹלָם

Isaiah 2:4 in Persian:
‎مردم از شمشیرهای خود گاوآهن...قومی به روی قوم دیگر شمشیر نمی‌کشد و برای جنگ و خونریزی آماده نمی‌شود.

They shall beat their swords into plowshares...nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
