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...

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 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 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

Answer 2

John Lennon’s vision of peace is to establish a world with no boundaries. He wants to make the people ‘imagine’ what peace could bring in their lives. He therefore pleads the people to walk in the path of establishing peace with him.

Further Explanation:

John Lennon in his poem "Imagine" is asking the people of the world to try to live beyond the borders which we have made. He wants the readers to reject all the preconceived notions of the world and think beyond them. Lennon asks the readers to 'imagine' a world where we do not think about the notion of 'heaven' and 'hell'. These conceptions are the beliefs which compel the people to take certain actions in their life. The time when the people will start to live for 'today' and do not worry about 'heaven' and 'hell', that day peace would be established silently. He also wants us to 'imagine' about the absence of any country and 'religion'. This would help the people to 'live in peace' without thinking to conquer or to 'kill' the people. Imagining these things makes the poet conscious. He says to his readers that the day will come when he would not be alone in this imagination. He hopes that everyone will join him too. Lennon believes that if the race of 'greed or hunger' would come to an end, 'brotherhood' would be established in the world. The poet says that because of these imaginations he would be called 'a dreamer' but at the same time, he hopes that a day would come when the people of 'world' would 'join' him in the establishment of peace in the world.
