Hey. [ENG ] My English is so bad, I wish you can understand me. I think you could try to sing and play "Madre anoche en las trincheras", it´s a precious song about a soldier that fights on the Spanish Civil War and writtes a letter to his mother. I would like so much that video. [ES] Tengo entendido que sabes un poco de español así que prefiero traducirtelo para que me entiendas mejor. Pienso que podrías intentar tocar y cantar "Madre anoche en las trincheras", es una canción muy bonita que trata sobre un soldado que lucha en la Guerra Civil y escribe una carta a su madre. Me gustaría mucho ese video. Link: ua-cam.com/video/HCexg9hEJ0A/v-deo.html Thanks!!
So although I listen to Spanish Civil War music a lot, I'd never heard this one before, and it's incredibly sad and powerful. I'm just gonna leave the lyrics and my best attempt at an English translation here, but I too would adore to hear it sung. Caminando por el campo Walking through the countryside En el suelo vi que había I saw lying on the ground Una carta ensangrentada A bloodstained letter De cuarenta años hacia Which had lain there forty years Era de un paracaidista It was from a paratrooper De la octava compañía Of the Eighth Company Que a su madre le escribía Who had written it to his mother. Y la carta así decía The letter read: Madre anoche en las trincheras "Mother, last night in the trenches Entre el fuego y la metralla amid the gunfire and the shrapnel Vía al enemigo correr I saw an enemy running La noche estaba cerrada Through the unremitting night Apunte con mi fusil I aimed with my rifle Al tiempo que disparaba But as I fired Una luz que iluminó A light illuminated El rostro que yo mataba The face of the man I was killing Era mi amigo José It was my friend Jose Compañero de la escuela My dear old schoolmate Con quien tanto yo jugué With whom so often I played A soldados y a trincheras At "Soldiers and Trenches" Ahora el juego era verdad Now the game was real Y a mi amigo ya lo entierran And now they are burying my friend Madre yo quiero morir Mother, I want to die Ya estoy harto de esta guerra I am tired of this war Madre si vuelvo a escribir Mother, if I write to you again Tal vez sea desde el cielo Perhaps it will be from Heaven Donde encontrare a José Where I will meet with Jose Y jugaremos de nuevo And we will play again like schoolmates Dos claveles en el agua Two carnations in the water No se pueden marchitar Cannot wither Dos amigos que se quieren Two friends who love one another No se pueden olvidar Cannot forget each other Si mi sangre fuera tinta If my blood were ink Y mi corazón tintero And my heart an inkwell Con las sangre de mis venas With the blood of my veins Te escribiría: Te quiero I would write: I love you"
It actually isn’t the original. Although the song (Johnny I hardly knew ya) had existed before the creation of when Johnny comes marching home, the tune was completely different. The first time Johnny I hardly knew ya was published with the tune from when Johnny comes marching home was actually shortly after when Johnny comes marching home was published. Therefore it was the Americans who had originally used the tune. It is a common misconception, as like I said, the lyrics of Johnny I hardly knew ya existed way before the American song. Look it up, it’s quite interesting.
your videos are so wonderful, they hit something deep that urges me to keep doing work to bring about change. thank your for your truly amazing covers!!!
I was always pretty sure that it's pro-war and pro-american song, and that it's anti-war version is "Johnny I hardly knew ya" :O PS: I'm sure that lot of dudes feel gay when they hear you sing
In Greece we have a Communist version "To Lord Byron", "Στον Λόρδο Μπάϋρον"; for the anti-axis student guerrilla organization that was named in Byron's honor. So we went full circle with that.
Address of the International Working Men's Association to Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States of America We congratulate the American people upon your re-election by a large majority. If resistance to the Slave Power was the reserved watchword of your first election, the triumphant war cry of your re-election is Death to Slavery. From the commencement of the titanic American strife the workingmen of Europe felt instinctively that the star-spangled banner carried the destiny of their class. The contest for the territories which opened the dire epopee, was it not to decide whether the virgin soil of immense tracts should be wedded to the labor of the emigrant or prostituted by the tramp of the slave driver? When an oligarchy of 300,000 slaveholders dared to inscribe, for the first time in the annals of the world, "slavery" on the banner of Armed Revolt, when on the very spots where hardly a century ago the idea of one great Democratic Republic had first sprung up, whence the first Declaration of the Rights of Man was issued, and the first impulse given to the European revolution of the eighteenth century; when on those very spots counterrevolution, with systematic thoroughness, gloried in rescinding "the ideas entertained at the time of the formation of the old constitution", and maintained slavery to be "a beneficent institution", indeed, the old solution of the great problem of "the relation of capital to labor", and cynically proclaimed property in man "the cornerstone of the new edifice" - then the working classes of Europe understood at once, even before the fanatic partisanship of the upper classes for the Confederate gentry had given its dismal warning, that the slaveholders' rebellion was to sound the tocsin for a general holy crusade of property against labor, and that for the men of labor, with their hopes for the future, even their past conquests were at stake in that tremendous conflict on the other side of the Atlantic. Everywhere they bore therefore patiently the hardships imposed upon them by the cotton crisis, opposed enthusiastically the proslavery intervention of their betters - and, from most parts of Europe, contributed their quota of blood to the good cause. While the workingmen, the true political powers of the North, allowed slavery to defile their own republic, while before the Negro, mastered and sold without his concurrence, they boasted it the highest prerogative of the white-skinned laborer to sell himself and choose his own master, they were unable to attain the true freedom of labor, or to support their European brethren in their struggle for emancipation; but this barrier to progress has been swept off by the red sea of civil war. The workingmen of Europe feel sure that, as the American War of Independence initiated a new era of ascendancy for the middle class, so the American Antislavery War will do for the working classes. They consider it an earnest of the epoch to come that it fell to the lot of Abraham Lincoln, the single-minded son of the working class, to lead his country through the matchless struggle for the rescue of an enchained race and the reconstruction of a social world.

The letter read:
Madre anoche en las trincheras
"Mother, last night in the trenches
Entre el fuego y la metralla
amid the gunfire and the shrapnel
Vía al enemigo correr
I saw an enemy running
La noche estaba cerrada
Through the unremitting night
Apunte con mi fusil
I aimed with my rifle
Al tiempo que disparaba
But as I fired
Una luz que iluminó
A light illuminated
El rostro que yo mataba
The face of the man I was killing
Era mi amigo José
It was my friend Jose
Compañero de la escuela

A soldados y a trincheras
At "Soldiers and Trenches"
Ahora el juego era verdad

Madre yo quiero morir

Tal vez sea desde el cielo

Dos claveles en el agua
Two carnations in the water
No se pueden marchitar
Cannot wither
Dos amigos que se quieren

No se pueden olvidar
Cannot forget each other
Si mi sangre fuera tinta
If my blood were ink
Y mi corazón tintero
And my heart an inkwell
Con las sangre de mis venas
With the blood of my veins
Te escribiría: Te quiero I would write: I love you"
Lovely. You should do the contemporary Irish anti-war song "Johnny I hardly Knew Ya" next edit: I see someone beat me to it. good taste
Think you could do the original Irish Johny I hardly knew ya?
It actually isn’t the original. Although the song (Johnny I hardly knew ya) had existed before the creation of when Johnny comes marching home, the tune was completely different.

you madlad, you finally did it. I love your content man!
I have 50+ versions of When Johnny comes marching home on my files and listened to like 300 versions, this is the best version I've heard.

The original was always anti-war, it celebrated soldiers finally returning from the Civil War
xD the term Gay in it's modern use came from the older english word for Happy. See Homophobic people gay isn't am insult it means happy
I’m sorry, but if you name isn’t Johnny and you aren’t returning from anything you aren’t going to make me feel gay.
@@hyperion3145 when Johnny comes marching home is about a dead soldier who is returning home probably in a casket
Приятно слушать, впрочем как и всегда.
Have you ever thought of making an English version of Mother Anarchy? Love that song.
