Bob Marley


Bob Marley was born 6th of February 1945 in village Nine Miles in Saint Ann on Jamaica. His father, Norval Marley was a white man, an officer of British army and his mother, Cedella Booker was a Jamaican singer and writers. 10th of February Bob Marley get married with a singer Rita Anderson.
Bob's life was active but very short. He died in effect of metastasis of a neoplasmic disease from lungs to a brain. The disease started from a foot, on toe of which was detected malicious melanoma. It was recommended him to amputate the toe, but Marley refused because of his convictions related with his religion - Rastafari. Bob believed that his faith will provide him an enternal life despite the neologism. He thought that doctors are just a liars, which pretend that have a power of sorcerers. He understood when he would amputate the toe, he might lose ability to a dance. It might finish his career at moment when he was near a great success.
Bob Marley was widely known of his devotion for his religion, which knew thanks his wife then thanks him whole world has known this religion. Anyway at the end of his life Bob approached to baptism in Ethiopian Church with his wife and 13 children. Then he got a new name Berhane Sellasj what means Light of Holy Trinity.
His songs are: "No Women No Cry", "Is This Love", my favourite "Buffalo Soldier", "Three Little Birds"
If someone doesn't know these songs I can sing them, because we sang them on our Engilsh lesson.
