About The Song
“Imagine” is one of John Lennon’s most famous and beloved songs, released in 1971 as the title track of his second solo album. It’s a powerful ballad that encourages listeners to imagine a world free from war, poverty, and other forms of suffering.
The song’s lyrics are simple yet evocative, painting a picture of a world where there are no countries, no religion, and no possessions. Lennon asks us to imagine a world where everyone lives in peace and harmony, sharing all the world’s resources.

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… Aha-ah…
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
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 as 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 live as one
