Let us go, children of the fatherland,Our day of glory has arrived.Against us the bloody flag of tyrannyis raised; the bloody flag is raised.Do you hear in the countrysideThe roar of those savage soldiers?They come right into our armsTo cut the throats of our sons, our comrades.To arms, citizens!Form your battalions,Let us march, let us march!That their impure bloodShould water our fields.
