<br>

Shalom, Shalom, <br>

You'll find Shalom <br>

The nicest greeting you know; <br>

It means bonjour, salud, and skoal <br>

And twice as much as hello. <br>

It means a million lovely things, <br>

Like peace be yours, <br>

Welcome home. <br>

And even when you say goodbye, <br>

You say goodbye with Shalom. <br>

<br>

It's a very useful word, <br>

It can get you through the day; <br>

All you really need to know, <br>

You can hardly go wrong, <br>

This is your home as long as you say: <br>

Shalom, <br>

The nicest greeting I know; <br>

Shalom, <br>

Means twice as much as hello. <br>

It means a million lovely things, <br>

Like peace be yours, <br>

Welcome home. <br>

And even when you say goodbye, <br>

If your voice has <br>

"I don't want to go" in it, <br>

Say goodbye with a little "hello" in it, <br>

And say goodbye with shalom. <br>

<br>

It's the most amazing thing <br>

That I think I've ever heard <br>

??? <br>

<br>

Shalom, Shalom, <br>

I find Shalom <br>

The nicest greeting you know; <br>

It means bonjour, salud, and skoal <br>

And twice as much as hello. <br>

It means a million lovely things, <br>

Like peace be yours, <br>

Welcome home. <br>

And even when you say goodbye... <br>

If your voice has <br>

"I don't want to go" in it, <br>

Say goodbye with a little "hello" in it, <br>

And say goodbye with shalom. <br>
