Women Hold the Key

נולדתי לשלום

 
מילים ולחן: עוזי חיטמן

אני נולדתי אל המנגינות 
ואל השירים של כל המדינות 
נולדתי ללשון וגם למקום 
.למעט להמון שיושיט יד לשלום 

אני נולדתי לשלום שרק יגיע 
אני נולדתי לשלום שרק יבוא 
אני נולדתי לשלום שרק יופיע 
.אני רוצה אני רוצה להיות כבר בו 

אני נולדתי אל החלום 
ובו אני רואה שיבוא השלום 
נולדתי לרצון ולאמונה 
.שהנה הוא יבוא אחרי שלושים שנה 

...אני נולדתי לשלום שרק יגיע 

נולדתי לאומה ולה שנים אלפיים 
שמורה לה אדמה ולה חלקת שמיים 
והיא רואה צופה הנה עולה היום 
.והשעה יפה זוהי שעת שלום  

...אני נולדתי לשלום שרק יגיע 

   World peace is not in the hands of men; women hold the key. It is women who carry precious life within them, enduring the pain and ecstasy at the moment of giving birth.

   Mothers of Israel are strong, compassionate women aspiring to create a future of peace and prosperity for their children and for the generations to come.

Yet, our present reality is a world in chaos where evil is rife and terror stalks the planet. In our society, we are witness to violence, corruption, perversion greed and intolerance. To attain the bright tomorrow we fervently desire, we women must initiate a “Tikkun;” invoke a miracle that would encourage the People of Israel to undergo a transformation and become, as was the Intention, a Light unto the Nations.  It is not enough to conceive a vision, one must make it happen.

   I propose convening a Congregation of Women, whose voices will resound in supplication to effect change in our society. Mothers and daughters of Israel, dressed all in white, each with her personal prayer will take part in a gala evening that would be transmitted live world-wide from a large auditorium in Jerusalem.  The exciting, inspiring program will include talks and prayers by prominent women leaders and song and dance by top performers, accompanied by an all-women’s orchestra. A propitious date for such an event could be:  when a day of Pesach  falls on Easter Sunday. Both festivals denote a renewal of nature in spring combined with the historical promise of redemption.

    An endeavour of this magnitude will demand the energy, dedication and voluntary work of women with organizational skills and talents in many fields and especially women who are already affiliated with such organizations.  I hope and pray that I can enlist your support, as well as the assistance of these institutions.

 If you are interested in endorsing and personally taking part in this auspicious enterprise, please contact me.

 

   With blessings
