lyrics

The Peace, Be Upon You
The Peace, of God Upon You
This greeting, so beautiful
This greeting, helps me stay dutiful
We meet, you see, I'm one of Peace
We meet, I see, your one of Peace
You smile, I smile and we smile for indeed
a smile will bring greater blessings.

As Salaamu Alaikum
'Alaikum As Salaam
As Salaamu Alaikum
'Alaikum As Salaam
As Salaamu Alaikum
'Alaikum As Salaam
"Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu"
(Translation The Peace Be upon you "and the Mercy and Blessings of God")

When your walkin
or your talkin
when your thinkin
or prayin
in your heart you always stay true
to the peace that we are claiming
The Qur'an says clearly (who we are)
and the life of the Prophet (he is a star)
if you use them for guidance (you'll go far)
wave your hand if your Muslim
you know what we say

As Salaamu Alaikum
'Alaikum As Salaam
As Salaamu Alaikum
'Alaikum As Salaam
As Salaamu Alaikum
'Alaikum As Salaam
"Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu"
(Translation The Peace Be upon you "and the Mercy and Blessings of God")
