The Marching Song

The Marching Song (även känd som Comrades, the voices) var British Union of Fascists kampsång som liknade den tyska Horst Wessel-lied och hade samma melodi. Texten går som följer:

Comrades, the voices of the dead battalions,

Of those who fell that Britain might be great,

Join in our song, for they still march in spirit with us,

And urge us on to gain the fascist state!

(Upprepa de två sista raderna)

We're of their blood, and spirit of their spirit,

Sprung from that soil for whose dear sake they bled,

Against vested powers, Red Front, and massed ranks of reaction,

We lead the fight for freedom and for bread!

(Upprepa de två sista raderna)

The streets are still, the final struggle's ended;

Flushed with the fight we proudly hail the dawn!

See, over all the streets the fascist banners waving,

Triumphant standards of our race reborn!

(Upprepa de två sista raderna)
