CHORUS Hala, Hala, Ms. Hala says
\nFind out what you want and do it
\nYou can choose the way you live
\nIt doesn\u2019t matter where you are from
\nFind out why you\u2019re here<\/p>\n

Hala, Hala, Ms. Hala says
\nWe all need to learn from each other
\nWe have to be a little bit of everything
\nWe can all do it
\nMy dream is for you<\/p>\n

I am American and Syrian
\nA little French and Spanish, too
\nI hope we all get to be this way
\nThis dream is for you<\/p>\n

My father is my best friend and my hero
\nHe helped me all my life
\nHis leg was amputated below the knee
\nI love helping him, like he helped me<\/p>\n

Hala, Ms. Hala<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had many jobs, studied medicine in Egypt
\nWorked my family business in textiles
\nI started my own company making baby clothes
\nHey! That\u2019s my working life!<\/p>\n

Hala, Ms. Hala<\/p>\n

Everyone in America celebrates my birthday
\nSame as Dr. Martin Luther King
\nEmpowering Refugees is my organization
\nWe help families with so many things<\/p>\n
