Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen" is a traditional African American spiritual that dates back to the 19th century. The song reflects themes of hardship and suffering, with the lyrics expressing the idea that the struggles and troubles of an individual are often unseen by others. The chorus emphasises this sentiment with the repeated phrase, "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen," highlighting the sense of isolation and the personal nature of these struggles.
