[QUOTE="ragebep, post: 154999"] Nice and Bouncy, but these are the lyrics of some of it: Let's go children of the fatherland, The day of glory has arrived! Against us tyranny's Bloody flag is raised! (repeat) In the countryside, do you hear The roaring of these fierce soldiers? They come right to our arms To slit the throats of our sons, our friends! Grab your weapons, citizens! Form your batallions! Let us march! Let us march! May impure blood Water our fields! :unsure: Nice and cheery :P [/b][/quote] sheesh, now I read the words, I think it is worse than the new Haka and should be banned :spiteful: [/b][/quote] I think there can't be any discussion about anthem, even if they talk abou wars, blood or anything else that can be considered "political uncorrect"... They rapresent the story and the proud of a nation in the past centuries... I'm italian, our anthem has a text that (except the first part that's always sung before matches) is pretty unknown to anybody... (and that's better, 'cause it's pretty incomprehensible) and "musically" it a simple, little march, but it's ours... it's "US" (...sorry for my english...) [/QUOTE]
