Small Fred I Will Stand Fast The Hills Of Ayalon In the hills of Ayalon above the broken earth Two boys shout and play with a ball on a field of shrub and dirt Divided sons of Abraham exhausted embrace Prince of Islam, pride of Judah know each other's face "If we met on the sands of Sinai under a molten sky And if you held me in your sights and looked me in the eye What would you do?" "If we met on the sands of Sinai under a molten sky And if I held you in my sights and looked you in the eye I would shoot you dead." In the hills of Ayalon that once were no man's land Shepherds chase their wandering sheep and lead them home again "My grandfather died at Dachau, never will I forget" "The British set fire to my grandfather's village and left twelve moslem dead" "If we met on the cliffs of Haramoun stunned by the rocket's flash And if you found my heart exposed and a pistol in your grasp What would you do?" "If we met on the cliffs of Haramoun stunned by the rocket's flash And if I found your heart exposed and a pistol in my grasp I would take you prisoner, hide you away, then set you free." In the hills of Ayalon the young ones play a game Toss an orange in the air and call each other's name Ricky, Shimon, Shalom, Naomi -- catch it before it falls Youssef, Hassan, Amal, Amira tear down the walls "If we met by the River Jordan under a rain of nails And if you raised your rifle up and your aim could not fail What would you do?" "If we met by the River Jordan under a rain of nails And if I raised my rifle up and my aim could not fail I would put down my gun, open my arms, and weep." |
