Verse 1:
When the guns finally fall silent,
and no child sheds tears anymore,
when we build bridges instead of walls,
and hatred seems a thing of the past.
When hearts remain open,
to suffering and to happiness,
then the path to peace begins,
and there is no turning back.
Chorus:
Let the silence speak, hear its song,
gentle as the wind that blows over fields.
Every person a light that gives hope,
for the world that loves peace.
Verse 2:
When we reach out hands instead of threatening,
and understanding unites us,
when love dwells over wounds,
and forgiveness quietly sprouts.
Then the earth awakens brightly,
blooms in the new dawn,
for in every soul dwells a dream,
greater even than need.
Chorus:
Let the silence speak, hear its song,
gentle as the wind that blows over fields. Every person a light that gives hope,
for the world that loves peace.
Bridge:
No prayer is ever lost,
if it stands for peace.
Every voice counts in the choir
of a humanity that lives.
Final chorus (calm and powerful):
Let the silence speak, hear its song,
like a heart that sees in the darkness.
Every person a light that glows forever,
for the world that feels peace.
