Gandhi was the pre-eminent political and spiritual leader of India during the Indian independence movement. He was the pioneer of satyagraha—resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience, firmly founded upon ahimsa or total non-violence—which led India to independence and has inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. Gandhi is commonly known around the world as Mahatma Gandhi and in India also as Bapu. He is officially honoured in India as the Father of the Nation; his birthday, 2 October, is commemorated there as Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday, and worldwide as the International Day of Non-Violence.

Rasta Man Chant

By Bob Marley

Hear the words of the Rastaman say:
"Babylon, you throne gone
down, gone down;
Babylon, you throne gone down."

Said I hear the words of the Iyaman say:
"Babylon, you throne gone
down, gone down;
Babylon, you throne gone down."

And I hear the angel with
the seven seals say:
"Babylon throne gone down, gone down;
Babylon throne gone down."

I say fly away home to
Zion (fly away home);
I say fly away home to
Zion (fly away home).
One bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.

One bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.
One bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.
Say one bright morning
when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.
