Peace Song - One World Harmony

A Fusion Artist Collaboration

Uniting Musicians Across Borders 

It all began during the pandemic when we started collaborating with Fusion Bags Artists from around the world, each bringing their distinct musical and cultural backgrounds to the mix.

Since then we have created various collaborations under the motto #musiccannotbeconfined, connecting musicians across countries and continents. Our mission is to link artists from diverse geographical, political, cultural, and musical landscapes to spread a message of peace, tolerance, and kindness.

We believe that diversity fuels creativity, which is essential for fostering understanding in today's polarized and conflicted world. Music, as an international and borderless language, has the power to promote tolerance and peace.

    The Peace Song

    Lyrics by Donald Waugh & Frank Moreau

    Peace, peace
    Sweet, sweet
    Peace, peace
    Peace for you and me
    All our families

    Peace, peace
    Sweet, sweet
    Peace for you and me
    All our families

    We gotta live in the moment
    For our vision to be clear
    Don’t you take up for the past
    We just need peace to be so near

    Bambanani oh oh Thandanani Mawethu
    Let’s bring peace to our nation
    Uthando noluvuyo kuthi sonke
    Kumhlaba wonke jikelele

    Peace and Harmony for all humankind
    Ndithi masibambaneni ngezandla
    Siibe moyamnye
    Sibe moyamnye

    The sun shines on us all the same
    Creating shadow and light
    Think of all that we could do in peace
    If we could all just get it right

    Just think of the children
    Their eyes and hearts what do they see
    They are just a blessing to remind us that we need to be

    Sharing, caring for others
    We can all grow up with peace
    String it all together
    Get past troubled times like these

    Careful how you step
    Don’t cha mess with Mother Earth
    You gotta stop it

    The measure of a person is not
    By arms they bear
    You better drop it
    Drop it now
    Let’s drop it
    And stop it

    We gotta live in the moment
    For our vision to be clear
    Don’t you take up for the past
    We just need peace to be so near

    The sun shines on us all the same
    Creating shadow and light
    Think of all that we could do in peace
    If we could all just get it right

    Just think of the children
    Their eyes and hearts what do they see
    They are just a blessing to remind us that we need to be

    Sharing, caring for others
    We can all grow up with peace
    String it all together
    Get past troubled times like these

    Peace, peace
    Sweet, sweet
    Peace, peace
    Peace for you and me
    All our families

    Peace, peace
    Sweet, sweet
    Peace for you and me
    All our families
