about

This interpretation of the classic spiritual highlights some of the analogues between the struggles faced by the Isrealites of the Bible with those of many modern-day Palestinians… Just to be clear, the message isn’t one born out of any antisemitic agenda, but rather of a hope to elicit empathy for an oppressed people.

lyrics

See the land of Palestine let me people go
The adopted home of the Ishmaelites let my people go
Go down Moses to the promised land go tell old Pharaoh let my people go
Racism institutionalised let my people go
No one free to criticise let my people go
Go down Moses to the promised land go tell old Pharaoh let my people go
Look into old Pharaoh’s eyes let my people go
Demand and end to apartheid let my people go
Go down Moses to the promised land go tell old Pharaoh let my people go
