Brothers, Let Your Weapons Lighten
Brothers, let your weapons lighten1,the battle, the last one, is near.
The day of victory is within sight,
brothers, for the army of labour.
The day of victory is within sight,
brothers, for the army of labour.
We, who came from the depths,
brothers of purposeless torment,
harden in the fight against vermin,
become like blades of steel.
Harden in the fight against vermin,
become like blades of steel.
Get up! It informs and urges,
the thrones crumble to dust,
beneath the blood-red banners,
we build the home of the future.
Beneath the blood-red banners,
we build the home of the future.
Others took the power and the honor,
toil was left to us,
but brothers, the workers' army
spites the tyrants.
But brothers, the workers' army
defies the tyrants.
Clench the armed fist
- brothers, we fight for peace,
let it not hower like threats,
let it strike like lightning.
Let it not hower like threats,
let it strike like lightning.
- 1. This is the verb version of the word for lightning, so in the sense of 'let your weapons produce lightning'.
