John Lennon and the world he dreamed


 We can’t talk about pop music without Beetles, and you may know very well about the leader of beetles, John Lennon.
▲'War is over if you want it'

 When we talk about him, we can point it out that he was a kind of anti-war activist. He stood against the Vietnamese war, and he sang several songs dreaming of the world where wars ended. You may know this beautiful song, however let’s listen it again and think about the lyrics.


 Imagine there’s no heaven
 It’s easy if you try
 No hell below us
 Above us only sky

 Imagine all the people
 Living for today ahaa

 Imagine there’s no countries
 It isn’t hard to do
 Nothing to kill or die for
 And no religion ahaa

 Imagine all the people
 Living life in peace you

 You may say I’m a dreamer
 But I’m not the only one
 I hope someday you’ll join us
 And the world will be one

 Imagine no possessions
 I wonder if you can
 No need for greed or hunger
 A brotherhood of man

 Imagine all the people
 Sharing all the world you

 You may say I’m a dreamer
 But I’m not the only one
 I hope someday you’ll join us
 And the world will be one


 Some of the words can be interpreted in political way, but above all, you may sympathize with them dreaming of one, peaceful world.
 Perhaps, peace is something tedious, trite word to you, but I hope you to remember the fact that there are still so many people who desire and are waiting for peace right now.
