Yusuf Islam - Peace Train (Peace Train lyrics on screen)

I believe that no effort directed toward peace is ever wasted. This is mine.

I love this version of "Peace Train"! It is very spiritual and beautiful. It's so different that the first version Cat Stevens recorded, but just as wonderful! I hope you enjoy this one.

Yusuf has a Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/YusufCatStevens

From Wikipedia: "Cat Stevens converted to Islam in December 1977[9] and adopted the name Yusuf Islam the following year. In 1979, he auctioned all his guitars for charity[10] and left his music career to devote himself to educational and philanthropic causes in the Muslim community. He has been given several awards for his work in promoting peace in the world, including the 2003 World Award, the 2004 Man for Peace Award, and the 2007 Mediterranean Prize for Peace. In 2006, he returned to pop music with his first album of new pop songs in 28 years, entitled An Other Cup. He now goes professionally by the single name Yusuf.[11][12] His most recent album, Roadsinger, was released on 5 May 2009."

Lyrics to "Peace Train" - Yusuf

Oh I've been happy lately,

Thinking about the good things to come

And I believe it could be,

Someday it's going to come

Oh I've been smiling lately,

Dreaming about the world as one

And I believe it could be,

Some day it's going to come

Some day it's going to come,

Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on peace train

Some day it's going to come,

Come on peace train,

Mmm, come take me home again,

Oh peace train sounding louder

Ride on the peace train

Mmm, come on peace train

Ngise'Khaya, Ngise'Khaya Ngise'Khaya, Ngise'Khaya, Ngise'Khaya*

'Cause out on the edge of darkness,

There rides a peace train

Oh peace train take this country,

Come take me home again

Oh I've been smiling lately,

Thinking about the world as one

And I believe it could be,

Someday it's going to come

Someday it's going to come, Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on the peace train

Someday it's going to come,

Come on the peace train,

Mmm, come take me home again,

Someday it's going to come,

Someday it's going to come,

Someday - someday,

Someday it's going to come

I've been crying lately,

Thinking about the world as it is

Why must we go on hating?

Why can't we live in bliss?

Ngise'Khaya, Ngise'Khaya Ngise'Khaya, Ngise'Khaya, Ngise'Khaya*

Peace train sounding louder

Glide on the peace train

Mmm, come on peace train

Someday it's going to come,

Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on peace train

Someday it's going to come,

Come on the peace train,

Mmm, come take me home again

Come take me home again

Come take me home,

come take me home

Come take me home again,

Someday it's going to come,

Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on peace train

Someday it's going to come,

Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on the peace train

Someday it's going to come,

Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on peace train

Someday it's going to come,

Come take me home again,

Mmm, come on the peace train

* Zulu: "Take me home"

Thank you Steve. Yes, the more you listen to it, the better it gets. He loves to change up the way he sings his songs. He's always done multiple styles for the same songs. If you do some searching on YouTube, you can watch some of the variations. I'll try to find one to share with you. :-) Sandy

Thanks, Ray. I have the original too and just remade my video for that version, as well. In fact, I had never even heard this version until I stumbled upon it while searching for "Peace Train" on Youtube. The first time I listened to it, I didn't like it very much -- I was expecting it to be more like the first original. But the more I listened to it, the better I liked it!
