    (adapted from the analysis by Jonathan Magonet 'Bible Lives' SCM)

    Ishmael, my brother,
    How long shall we fight each other?

    My brother from times bygone,


    My brother, Hagar's son,
    My brother, the wandering one.
    One angel was sent to us both,
    One angel watched over our growth -
    There** in the wilderness, death threatening through thirst,
    I a sacrifice on the altar, Sarah's first.

    Ishmael, my brother, hear my plea:


    It was the angel who tied thee to meÉ

    Time is running out, put hatred to sleep.


    Shoulder to shoulder, let's water our sheep.
    (Shin Shalom)
