New school song celebrates nontraditional holiday

The 6th graders at Hidden Trail Elementary in Chino Hills were given six songs to sing this school year: Thanksgiving, The Star Spangled Banner, America the Beautiful, The Apple Song, Turkey in the Straw and Over the River—all good and innocent. But recently added is this song: Ramadan.

Here's how it goes:

Do not eat or drink,
Until the sun goes down.
When you bow and pray,
Your face must
Touch the ground.

Going to the mosque:
It's where the family prays,
Or in an open yard;
They pray five times a day.

***

It's all in the month of
Ramadan, Ramadan,
Ramadan.
It's all in the month of
Ramadan, Ramadan,
Ramadan.

***

Fasting is the way,
And it takes discipline.
Sunrise to sunset,
The spirit glows within.

Twenty-nine sacred days
When everyone takes a part.
It's very spiritual,
And it will fill the heart.

What do you think? Should America's 6th graders be taught to sing this song? Email me at This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
