PLOWS AND SEEDS (A peace song.) By Amparo Jaramillo-RestrepoChorus Send us plows and seeds Your dreams, your heart, So we can walk together, in peace, Hand in hand, brother Sam. Father got killed In the river one morning While looking for fish. Carlos lost his arm Under a rainbow, one evening While flying his kite. Looking for fruit Under a tree in the countryside My friend found a mine. He also found death Among the daisies, under a tree on the countryside. The full moon was so bright one night in the park we gathered to sing and to dance. But the school was gone Next morning when we came to class We all sat at the park just to cry. You can't replace my father Or bring my friend back, But you can give me Love and hope, brother Sam. So we can walk together, in peace, Hand in hand, brother Sam. This song was written in New York, in 1988 inspired by the terrible experiences of the war in Nicaragua.
