Christy Moore - Viva la Quinta Brigada. Live at Barrowland Glasgow

Around the time I saw the light of morning
A comradeship of heroes was laid
From every corner of the world came sailing
The Fifty International Brigade.
They came to stand beside the Spanish people
To try and stem the rising fascist tide
Franco's allies were the powerful and wealthy
Frank Ryan's men came from the other side.
Even the olives were bleeding
As the battle for Madrid it thundered on
Truth and love against the force of evil
Brotherhood against the fascist clan.
Chorus:
Viva la Quinta Brigada,
No Pasaran, the pledge that made them fight
Adelante was the cry around the hillside
Let us all remember them tonight.
Bob Hilliard was a Church of Ireland pastor
Form Killarney across the Pyrenees he came
From Derry came a brave young Christian Brother
And side by side they fought and died in Spain.
Tommy Woods age seventeen died in Cordoba
With Na Fianna he learned to hold his gun
From Dublin to the Villa del Rio
He fought and died beneath the Spanish sun.
(Chorus)
Many Irishmen heard the call of Franco
Joined Hitler and Mussolini too
Propaganda from the pulpit and newspapers
Helped O'Duffy to enlist his crew.
The call came from Maynooth, "support the facists"
The men of cloth had failed yet again
When the Bishops blessed the Blueshirts in Dun Laoghaire
As they sailed beneath the swastika to Spain.
(Chorus)
This song is a tribute to Frank Ryan
Kit Conway and Dinny Coady too
Peter Daly, Charlie Regan and Hugh Bonar
Though many died I can but name a few.
Danny Boyle, Blaser-Brown and Charlie Donnelly
Liam Tumilson and Jim Straney from the Falls
Jack Nalty, Tommy Patton and Frank Conroy
Jim Foley, Tony Fox and Dick O'Neill.
(Chorus repeated)

    My grandpa (may heaven keep his soul) was a Catalan Republican who fought against Franco's troops for 17 months in a fecking trench with water up to the knee, then he was captured and put in a concentracion camp. He managed to escape and walked back home, more than 1.000 km through forests and mountains. He told me how he fought alongside Canadian, American and Irish folks. Thank yous for your service, for fighting side by side with me 19 year old grandad, trying to keep the fascists away from my land. Forever grateful to those brave people. Cheers from a Catalan Republican who loves Éire and its folk. Visca Catalunya lliure! Tiocfaidh ár lá! Gora Euskal Herria!

    This is the favourite song of our family patriarch, Patrick Brosnan, from Fenit on the Dingle peninsula, in County Kerry. He is currently in hospital, with a terminal bleed on the brain and he's dying. he's not expected to survive long at all. days perhaps. his Sister and Mother both died within 6 weeks of one another in 1969, leaving him utterly alone in this world, in a foreign country. He made a life for himself here, found a wife and raised a family, but his only Son, my Cousin Dominic, died suddenly just a few weeks ago 💔💔 This is their favourite song , and I already know heaven will have loudspeakers, from which the two of them can enjoy listening to, but in these final few days of his life on earth, would you kind people please keep Patrick and Dominic Brosnan in your prayers? life is so fleeting, that we should treasure every second... I love you all. Granny Brosnan and Grandma, please come and take Patrick. He so loves you both and he will desperately wish to see you again so please come to collect him, and keep his soul safe til we are reunited in eternity...❤

    As long as I know, Catalan people are Spanish people too. Sadly for the Republic's fate, Catalonia fought its own Civil War between fascists, republicans and left-revolutionaries until 1937... And Barcelona didn't try to resist as Madrid did for three years, even with the european conflict so near which, as president Negrín said, will force France and the UK to join the fight in Spain. Anyway, all our gratitude to the people who came from all over the world just to help and fight against fascism on this lost nook. Maybe one of the greatest solidarity fact, it will never be a defeact while some of us will still be remembering them.

    Is is unbelievable that it is out of Spain where the real gratitude for fighting like one single man for freedom is really being praised, clear example that in Spain we are still goberned by the heirs of the fascist regime. You can't imagine how proud this makes me be, not for being Spanish nor Irish, but for being part of the proud working class of the world, united we stand! Que viva la lucha de la clase obrera y la Quinta Brigada!
