When Bob Marley sang the song "No woman No cry", what was his message. Did he mean if there is no woman there is no crying or was it Please woman dont Cry?

I guess, Bob meant to say, "don't cry woman" since the lyrics says "Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears". As I've known years ago, the title in Jamaica is "No Woman, Nuh Cry", "nuh" which means "don't", so it must mean, No Woman, don't cry:)

Totally agree with maple_kisses. If you read the lyrics, Bob is definitely telling his woman not to cry. Simple really.

Bob marley 'no woman no cry' means women are stronger than men imotionally. Somethings that women goes true with guys is unbareable if it was a guy on the other end, maybe he would be suicidal

Welcome. Haiya!! U saying that is what it means? For the sake of arguement, how are women stronger than men? In what way can u say u are stronger? Men can be suicidal? I am pricked. Infact I want a discussion on this. Is it possible that women can be homicidal then? He he he! Put me in your friends list and then we shall examine this farther.

I saw a documentary on Marley a while back and it said what the song was about, I forget what the message was, but it was deep. Look up and watch a documentary on him and you will find the answer.

The first time I was introduced to this song I also though the message was if there were no woman then there is no reason for men to cry. Someone corrected me and told me it was actually a song for woman, it was more like a promise that no woman will cry again.

I don't know if you noticed it the same, that Bob Marley songs are all about if not oppression, there's something to tell about politics and the like. No Woman No Cry tells of the harrowing experiences of the residents of Trechtown when he was just a kid. There he saw the real meaning of life and politics as well that while the boarders of trenchtown (trenchtown is some kind of a ghetto) eat cornmeal porridge, people in position (politicians) can have all the things they want to have in life. "No Woman, No Cry" is a personification of the reality that means, "there is no sorrow, pain and all the hardships in life if only there were no greedy politicians hungry for power and money". I hope that explains it all...Long Live Rasta!...

No woman no cry, means Please, woman, don't cry. He is speaking patois, a corruption of English.
