La versione cantata da Lauryn Hill e Ziggy Marley con un inserto...
Old pirates yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly

Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fullfill the book

Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer

Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
But I'm not the only one
All I ever had, redemption songs
I hope someday you'll join us
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom
And the world will be 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 for today...

Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer

Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
But I'm not the only one
All I ever had, redemption songs
I hope someday you'll join us
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom
And the world will be as one
Redemption Song

Lauryn:
Oh Pirates yes they rob I
Stole I from the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Allmighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs

Ziggy & Lauryn:
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Yes, some say it's just a part of it
But we've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs

Lauryn:
Yo, If they can stop this fruit
They would pop this route
Chop this fruit
Treat us like a prostitute
Knock this youth
See me in my cocky suit
God's recruit
From fallin even God's salute
Tribal truth
Ja people can't be mute
Share my youth to Babylon can't regroup
Sing, to Babylon can't regroup
Sing, to Babylon can't regroup

Lauryn & Ziggy:
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing
Another song of freedom, yeah
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption song
Redemption song
Redemption song
Redemption song
Redemption song
