I loved this song soo much when I was 13 y.o. Now I'm 45 and when I listen to it...i just want to cry...brings back some very,very,very good childhood vibes🥺 Bob Marley forever!
I hear you man!! Such hope-filled, artistic insight speaks to the spiritual as well as the pragmatic part inside all of us. Yet one of the big problems with us is how long it takes for the deeply needed change to emerge. In the meantime, while we yearn for change, injustice and wrongs seems to triumph. Yet in recalling the simple precept from the philosopher Lao Tzao and possibly other unknown sages:.. journey of 1000 miles begins with one step. By that reckoning humanity has less than 1000 miles yet to go. Also it's not inability which prevents our dreams fulfilment; it's the becoming impatient with the slow sequential nature of it all, Such that it seems like 1 step forward 2 step backwards! *Peace out!* 😊🖤❤💚💛💙🎶😀
As a Zimbabwean, I LOVE this song. Bob Marley would be turning in his grave to see what corruption and greed has done to Zimbabwe today. I still firmly believe this should have been our national anthem!!!!!
I have family were fortunate enough to escape, so sad, I remeber spending a month in Zim as a child, most beautiful place I have been to, to date. Now it is not just Zim that needs liberation :(
Amen to that fellow brothers and sisters . Together we are stronger ,keep the faith❤goodness and love will always wins.❤😊.thank you bob. The most highest king /freedom fighter /genius /truth teller.one world one love ❤
You realize this song is a Marxist Anthem, that helped provoke the murderous environment that led to the Zimbabwean genocide of white Rhodesian's right???? Now they are are begging the White Farmers to come back.... look up the return of the first 2 families this week, that were in Exile, back to their farms they fled!! The locals were soooooo overjoyed the swarmed them and sang them tribal songs of returning, because they're starving..... They took the farms, and then nobody knew how to farm..... and many millions starved. It's good to have proper context friend...... Good song though... sure.
Bob thanks...listen to your songs often because the truth in them was staring us in the face for long...we are seeing more fulfillment daily...rest in peace bro love you.
My Love, my precious Boyfriend brought me here. He is always Listening to Bob, this song in particular is one he replays almost everyday. i feel blessed to have him in my life.
this song 's lyrics are initially written by Daniel Leach aka Bro Philippine, who lived in Ethiopia Shashamane. He, Bro Philippine, drafted this song's lyrics while Bob Marley was in transit in Ethiopia on his way to Zimbabwe. there are old versions of this records in which Daniel Leach is mentioned as the song writer. We miss and love Bro Philippine our mentor.
We African/Americans are a family and it is time that we begin working toward our own family's interests. The idea that, "Charity begins at home" is not separatism nor selfishness. The neglecting of ourselves and relying on others to provide for us nurtures that negative perception other families have of our community. Until we as a people take ownership of our own financial, political and social destiny, we will be seen as not deserving of others' respect. Today it is not a whole lot about fighting for our rights; it is more of how we should exercise our rights. For one, by making sure that we are being treated justly with the allocation of government contracts, loans, grants, scholarships, etc., including the contracting of capital improvement projects. With a unified voice we can make sure some of these infrastructure projects will be developed and built by us in our communities.
For every other so called race, they practice the concept of charity begins at home. It is only us blacks who believe this is racist. But the two biggest obstacles to black liberation is Christianity and Islam. Black people, you can't worship the god of your oppressors.
One Love. Rest in peace Robert Nesta Marley and Robert Gabriel Mugabe. You have fought the real fight. The black peolpe are grateful for the sacrifice for own people. Africa Unite the land of all black over the world. Jah...
You can start the revolution by shedding the invader's concept of god. Stop praying to that moon god Allah. You are an African. Your god should be African like you.
"..And I don't want my people to be trick by mercenary" Marley was awake He tried to wake up and to unite the masses. I think for this they have eliminated him
His father was a white man. They have been so cruel to him, because of that. He completely rejected his European heritage. He was not working to unite the masses. He was working to make his friends believe he was just as black as them. He just wanted acceptance of the people around him. That's all any of us want. Unlike his texts, he was a bitter man. He betrayed a lot of his loved ones, and he fostered a hate for the Europeans. The exact part of him that had made him the outcast in his community his entire life. Marley was clear, but to this very day... I believe he is the most misunderstood man that has been on our planet. A peaceful man doesnt sing about revolution.
@@nfriend30 Well, He was not black. He was a halfsie. All his pleas for peace and community where directed at the ones that rejected him. Black people hated him for being half white. His words are on the record. He said this himself. Just like Trevor Noah... Being a half blood in a black country is brutal. They have been subjected to racism their entire lifes. And it was not the Europeans. It were their neighbours.
@@Chartoise Dude..you have no clue what you are talking about...I'm a born Jamaican and grew up in the same neighborhood as bob and never like bob music because of my age at that time..Now I can't get enough of it. Jamaica full of mix people..Do a search on white Jamaican, Chinese Jamaicans Indian Jamaican...My school mate eyes is blue with dread lol. It's not uncommon to see people like that it's not a big deal dude. So Bob was not a unique because of his father...America make this a big deal to separate us. I guess you're from America? Caribbean people sing a lot about selves consciousness..love for each other. Listen to other Reggae music and you will see.
He told the truth in a world of compromise for him it was a spiritual thing . Like Jesus like king he told the truth and I believe was done away with because he was powerful force in music . And the wider world .
this song is as relevant today as it was at the time it was written. Liberation turning into just another dictatorship, same old story. Go Mugabe, let Zimbabwe be free and make Marley's dream become true.
Bob , truth teller ,music genius, jah love .needed more than ever ,brothers and sisters , December 2023 .one love ❤ dearest bob .love you brother .thank you for your guidance and strength in these changing times 🙏😘
Divide and rule is England policy so bob marley was English man and in his song title Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 he mentioned the verse to divide and rule could only tear us apart. R.I.P BOB MARLEY
my buddy and i were supposed to see bob marley and the wailers at the university of maryland in may 1981 and we were really pissed off that the show was cancelled until we heard why it was cancelled. rip robert nesta marley...
Oh ça c'est vrai la jeunesse, la première fois qu'on l'a écouté on était Paris et je m'en rappellerais toujours tu pleurais de rire en l'écoutant ! Je t'adore la jeunesse !
Natty Trash it ina Zimbabwe...So prophetic. I wish all the people of Zimbabwe peace and harmony, inclusion and prosperity, now that nightmare of Mugabe is over..It's been a few years now, but still.
Mugabe was the best leader we could ever ask for. A true blessing to Zimbabwean people. The land reform was the best thing that could have ever happened to an African nation. It has to do with national sovereignty.
Zimbabwe is a great nation spiritually, it was the centre and capital of the Mutapa dynasty that governed the SADC region centuries ago.Its a shame to see how it has been ruined by greed.It shall surely rise again, Thanks to Robert Nester Marley.May his soul rest in eternal peace.
I am VERY PROUD OF THE ONES ALL OVER THE WORLD 💪💯🪖🙏🔥. THAT STOOD ARM N ARM AND HAND TO HAND FOR THE YOUNG BROTHER 🙌 GEORGE PERRY FLOYD JR 👊💯🙏 . THE WAR NEVER STOPS unless the WORLD GIVES UP. TUCK DAT WIN UNDER YOUR BELT AND "KEEP ON PUSHING" !!!! WE GOT A LONG WAYZ TO GO 🔥👊💯🙏💪🤓👑
"IF YOUR NIGHT SHOULD TURN TO DAY, A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL RUN AWAY" Let's explain it so that every man and woman will understand this principle. Now think of Bob Marley as an evangelist through music or a freedom fighter and a human rights activist. Bob Marley's music is not just about smoking marijuana. Let's take this song line in two pieces; "If your night should turn to day", this is a proverb or figurative expression for the "Wrath" or the rage of God Almighty" which comes in the form plagues or diseases without cure. Don't confuse this with cancer or HIV, cancer and HIV are man made diseases. Next, "a lot of people will run away" means they cannot bear it. The Wrath of God is not the something as going to hell. The wrath of happens right here on earth before you die. That's why Jesus said every evil you mete shall be meted out to you when the wrath of God cometh. Shakespear put it this way "the evil that men do lives after them". The first law of karma says "as a man sow, so shall he reap" . In Bob Marley's song "time will tell" means it is only a matter of time when the wrath of God comes. In Marley's song "Stiff necked Fools" He wrote "the lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die from want of wisdom". This is a quote from the Book Of Wisdom (Proverbs 10:21). In the song "Guiltiness" he said "Woe to the downpressors, they will eat the bread of sorrow". To eat the bread of sorrow is also a figurative expression for the wrath of God. In the song “Rat Race”, Bob wrote “in the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty” This also is quote from the Holy scripture- the Proverbs. Jesus said "do unto others what you would like others to do unto you". Conficious quoted the same scripture saying " do unto others what you like others to do for you". In everyday life we say "treat others the way you would like to be treated". Essentially, nearly every of Bob Marley song has a line quoted from the Book of Wisdom or the proverbs to make us better people and treat one another with dignity and One Love. Bob Marley did say that Marijuana should be used as medicine for all mankind.
yeah, not everything turned out right in zimbabwe, but the national liberation struggle against white racist rule was still righteous and this song got inspiration from and gave inspiration to that and many other righteous liberation struggles. in the end justice will win out there and everywhere else. the amazing thing about marley is that he was a guy with very little formal education, but incredible wisdom about the world around him and the world in general. his body is long gone, but his spirit lives on and will do so forever.
No revolution is complete until everything is changed. Mugabe is right. Bob Marley was right. Soon we will find out who is the real revolutionaries, because I don't want my people to be tricked by mercenaries.
we come together and overcome - fighting for our rights - all humans in Afrika, Europe, America, Asia, Australia - all - everywhere - in every man chess, there beats a heart ... ONE heart - ONE Destiny - ONE LOVE! We have to fight - for our rights - mash it up and liberate
Look at the dat this song is released. Why we're still excepting this!!! How many people have to warn you before you start acting? Bob Marley - Zimbabwe (Lyrics) [Verse 1] Every man got a right to decide his own destiny And in this judgment there is no partiality So arm in arms, with arms, we'll fight this little struggle Cause that's the only way we can, overcome our little trouble [Chorus] Brother you're right, you're right You're right, you're right, you're, so right!

Feeling irie whilst listening to Zimbabwe,,,as a Zimbabwean man
"..And I don't want my people to be trick by mercenary"
Marley was awake He tried to wake up and to unite the masses. I think for this they have eliminated him
Bro, they didn’t “eliminate” bob, he is ever with us... no.? Then why do I feel him right now.
His father was a white man. They have been so cruel to him, because of that. He completely rejected his European heritage. He was not working to unite the masses.

@@nfriend30 Well, He was not black. He was a halfsie. All his pleas for peace and community where directed at the ones that rejected him. Black people hated him for being half white.

Love every single one of Bob Marley song's
yeah, not everything turned out right in zimbabwe, but the national liberation struggle against white racist rule was still righteous and this song got inspiration from and gave inspiration to that and many other righteous liberation struggles. in the end justice will win out there and everywhere else. the amazing thing about marley is that he was a guy with very little formal education, but incredible wisdom about the world around him and the world in general. his body is long gone, but his spirit lives on and will do so forever.
No revolution is complete until everything is changed. Mugabe is right. Bob Marley was right. Soon we will find out who is the real revolutionaries, because I don't want my people to be tricked by mercenaries.

Bob Marley - Zimbabwe (Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
Every man got a right to decide his own destiny
And in this judgment there is no partiality
So arm in arms, with arms, we'll fight this little struggle
Cause that's the only way we can, overcome our little trouble
[Chorus]
Brother you're right, you're right
You're right, you're right, you're, so right!
We gon' fight (we gon' fight), we'll have to fight (we gon' fight)
We gonna fight (we gon' fight), fight for our rights!
[Refrain]
Natty Dread it in-a (Zimbabwe)!
Set it up in (Zimbabwe)!
Mash it up-a in-a Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)!
Africans a-liberate (Zimbabwe), yeah
[Verse 2]
No more internal power struggle
We come together to overcome the little trouble
Soon we'll find out who is the real revolutionary
Cause I don't want my people to be contrary
[Chorus]
And brother you're right, you're right
You're right, you're right, you're, so right
We'll have to fight (we gon' fight), we gonna fight (we gon' fight)
We'll have to fight (we gon' fight), fighting for our rights
[Refrain]
Mash it up in-a (Zimbabwe)
Natty trash it in-a (Zimbabwe)
Africans a-liberate Zimbabwe! (Zimbabwe)
I and I a-liberate Zimbabwe
[Chorus]
(Brother you're right,) you're right
You're right, you're right, you're, so right
We gon' fight (we gon' fight), we'll have to fight (we gon' fight)
We gonna fight (we gon' fight), fighting for our rights
[Verse 3]
To divide and rule could only tear us apart
In every man chest, there beats a heart
So soon we'll find out who is the real revolutionaries
And I don't want my people to be tricked by mercenaries
[Chorus]
Brother you're right, you're right
You're right, you're right, you're, so right
We'll have to fight (we gon' fight), we gonna fight (we gon' fight)
We'll have to fight (we gon' fight), fighting for our rights!
[Outro]
Natty trash it in-a Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Mash it up in-a Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Set it up in-a Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Africans a-liberate Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Africans a-liberate Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Natty dub it in-a Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Set it up in-a Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Africans a-liberate Zimbabwe (Zimbabwe)
Every man got a right to decide his own destiny
