- I compiled all of the existing versions of the song "55 Days at Peking" and included subtitles in the songs native Language and in English. I want to thank my friends and family on helping translating the Italian, Spanish and Japanese versions of the song. The Japanese English subtitles may be a little inaccurate but it was the best we can do without Google Translate. This was heavily inspired by the video made by Dr. Ludwig ( / @dr.ludwig ) here on UA-cam.

"How we came together to bully China in 5 different languages"
China started bullying the european civillians and chinese christians so the great powers were forced to attack
@@timogamer5794 lol the European congquerd China or Qing empire
@@brentjaynumbaddo3030 no they took important ports and split China in spheres of Influence but they didn't conquer it
Exactly, they take the ports hence have the ability to manipulate emperial market. They also spreading a lot of provocative message to the people to join revolutionist.
The next thing is, the european sold their weapon to the revolutionist, therefore the revolutionist have more leverage and can do physical conflict. It is proven by how they force the loyalist to shave their head, confronting the lords and the generals (sometimes they kill them lol), and opressed monks who help loyalist refugees (this is why a lot of temples get burn down in the war).
Of course the empress know whats up and rage war by mobilize the army and order the people to retaliate. A lot of christian chinese and european people get killed in the process. This is what the colonials want. In the name of "defending their citizen", they mobilize their army.
So sad they go to war and killed eachother man
Edit : my point is european didnot conquered the empire, they just help the revolutionist to wipe it out of china.

A fun fact: Republic of Korea Air Force has been using the instrumental tune (the version used as the opening of the classic movie) as a 'wakeup song' for its recruit training camps. It is imprinted into all Air Force recruits' mind. The version (movie opening) starts with thumping sounds of marching soldiers, the tune is nicknamed "pitapat anthem" (here the 'pitapat' is an onomatopoeia of tramping footsteps) among ROKAF servicemen.

Trying to translate Japanese lyrics
「The year was 1900
55 days in the city Pekin
Human as bullet, hitting each other
Upon the boxer Rebellion
Make the Allies, turning to be enemies
Crowd of Rioters, clashed in the great battle
With French, English, Italian and Russia
As well as the Japanese elite
The glory Pekin, only to be the street of death
Under the call from the Empress of Qing,
The soldiers from Qing, charging to Allies
Without the fear to die under fire
Their war cry echoing, upon the silent street
The drums and the trumpets, sounds so bravely
The glory Pekin, only in the blazing fire」
I'm just a freshmen major in Japanese, I'm not sure my english translation is in 100% correct but i'm doing my best.
To explain some, first I need to say that the lyric in video is not correct in some place
this is the correct lyrics(Transcript by Erika):
時は1900年 55日の北京城
肉弾相打つ 義和団事件
連合軍を 向こうに回し
決戦挑む 暴徒の輩
フランス イギリス イタリー ロシア
さらに加えて 精鋭日本
華の北京 いまや死の街
清国女帝の 号令一下
連合軍に 突撃かける
死に物狂いの 清国兵士
喊声市街に 轟き渡り
ドラム ラッパも また勇まし
華の北京 いまや火の海
some explanation
肉弾相打つ = "Human bullets" is the direct translation, it means "Soldiers charging like bullet"
連合軍を 向こうに回し= this one i'm not really sure what it mean, so I translate directly. Sorry if there is mistake
暴徒の輩 = "The Rioters"
精鋭日本 = "Elite Japan" I guess japanese are the only one that praising themselves in this song
華の北京 = In japanese "華の(n.)" is not really about flower, is about the greatness, beauty, florid etc...
火の海 = "The sea of fire", not sure how to said this in english
This is really interesting and I’m sure it’s a lot more accurate than the subtitles in the video. Maybe one day I’ll actually make an updated version and I’ll most likely use this translation. Thanks for commenting!
I am Japanese. Good translate. thx.
I want to fix in detail.
1
連合軍を 向こうへ回し＝(Chinese )make enemies of Allies.
"向こう" is "Other side". But this word also means "Enemy" or "Enemy side".
決戦挑む 暴徒の輩 =Crowd of Rioters challenging (us) to decisive battle.
"挑む" is "Challenge".
華の北京 いまや死の街 =The glorious Pekin, now is the street of death.
"いまや " is "now".
2
清国女帝の 号令一下
連合軍に 突撃かける 死に物狂いの 清国兵士＝Soldiers of Qing, charging to Allies forces, without the fear to die, under the call of the Empress of Qing
This is one continuous word.
ドラム ラッパも また勇まし＝(Qing soldiers are brave. ) The drums and the trumpets are also brave.

World history is a separate subject and even then that has to cover the broad spectrum of the and worlds entire history so it mainly focuses on the general shifts and changes of the predominate civilizations in the world from the start of civilization to now.

I love the contrast between each version
The American/British is calmed, simple, but can still send shivers down your spine
The German version seems to take the slower rhythm of the American/British version and cranked it up a little, but jesus fucking christ that chorus is amazing, it really has that military vibe to it
The Japanese has a faster rhythm, slightly poetic, and combined with a strange modern vibe feels weird at first, but it works and it's great
The Italian version, same thing, slower rhythm, more bombastic even? But it's so good
The spanish...oh my god the spanish, it's like a combination of every single version, with slight Russian vibes, and literally threw every idea together, and those sudden changes in pitch tone puts an staple of originality in the song, kinda reminds me of a few old Mexican songs I've heard over the years, the style is kinda similar
The french and russian versions are missing, but i bet they sound just as good
Damn,you described them just likeI feel them!

Each version has a theme of its own.
American: Narrative
German: Melodramatic
Japanese: Sympathetic
Italian: Honor and glory
Spanish: Let me tell you about those yellow devils
Germany mentioned all nations, while Noone mentioned Germany 🇩🇪😪
Well, most nations around that time hated or didn't trust the German Empire, besides Italy, Austria-Hungry, and the USA. Italy and Austria-Hungry had an alliance while the USA had a trade alliance and close ethnic ties with the Germans.
@Maulfick Manfred then they betrayed the Germans near the end of WW2
Well tensions were high at this point Germany was building a huge navy that british and other nations did not like
@Maulfick Manfred we hated Austria more than germany itself because they owned italian regions. And thats why we declared on Austria and only later on germany
@@felicepompa1702 do you remember about Italian's impossibility to withstand against Austrians:) and it was just act of treason against the central powers...
Jokes aside, it’s incredible that all these nations came up with a song with the same name that shared only the name, the event in which they sand about, and the theme by which they sung, and added their own National flare to it to make the songs rang from country folk songs, to uplifting war waltz’s
This song isn't from the actual war; this song is (in all of its various versions) from a 1960s movie dramatization of the actual Siege of the Peking Legations.
...And after 14 years they fought each other
yeah they must've had a great time while looting raping and committing war crimes against civilians there when they marched in to reassert their imperialist control against the protesters XD
I find it cool that it's the "song of 11 nations", and there's 5 songs total, and if you multiply those number you get 55
This is proof that we live in a period with a society controlled by governments time travelers
Coincidence? I think not

I’ve read somewhere long time ago that Japanese were said to be much shorter than even other Asians then.

This crossover is much more better than the endgame
There's a very interesting story behind that thumbnail. Basically, the different nations tried to pick the tallest soldiers they could to one up each other. The Americans were sneaky and brought in a taller soldier, but the British were sneakier and gave theirs an even taller hat. Notice also how the British Indian soldier is ahead of the Germans, French and so on. That's because even an Englishman's dog is above a Continental (or so the thinking was at the time...)
Sounds kinda racist
@@williamyao5317 Only against the French in true British fashion.
I doubt the story as it sound like it was made after the facts. I mean, if the story we true, then the pith helmet we invented in Peking and so does the Sikh's turbans. Why not just wear the tall bearskin hat instead? Why didn't the Japanese stack two soldier under one coat?
If anything, it point to the story being fake.
