"Amahoro is a Bantu word that can be translated as “peace.” In Swahili, the word is similar.
It is a primary greeting used in East-Central Africa, especially Burundi and Rwanda. means not just “peace,” but “everything to do with peace and connection and wholeness.” It is the greeting of respect and it means ‘‘peace be between us in this encounter.’ it is a living-out of the reconciliation and restoration needed in all of the broken and hopeful places that seek a greater understanding of Peace."



Tracy Howe-Wispelwey composed the melody and lyrics when she was in South Africa working with the Amahoro-Africa project. You can hear the arrangement recorded by Tracy, Bongani Magatyana and his choir, African Chord Melodies here - restorationvillagearts.bandcamp.com/track/amahoro.
