Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 some day you'll join us
And the world will live 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 may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one

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 some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Overall Meaning

The song “Imagine” by John Lennon is a timeless classic that embodies the spirit of hope and unity. The first verse of the song sets the stage for a world without borders, where people coexist peacefully without the need for religion, war, or possession. The second verse expands on this idea, suggesting a society where people share everything and there is no hunger or greed.


The message of the song is clear – Lennon is calling for people to come together and imagine a world where there are no divisions or conflicts. He acknowledges that this may seem like a utopian dream, but he hopes that eventually, everyone will join in and create a global community of peace.


The chorus of the song is perhaps the most famous part, with the repeated phrase “You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one”. This suggests that Lennon is aware that his vision of the world may seem idealistic or unrealistic, but he knows that he is not alone in wanting to create a better world.


Overall, the song is a powerful call to action that encourages people to think beyond their individual interests and work towards a more harmonious and equitable society.
