Fusion Artist Collaboration | Peace Song by One World Harmony | Music Peace Connection

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
