El quinto regimiento
Rolando Alárcon
The Fifth Regiment
(Version sung by Rolando Alarcón)
On the eighteenth of July
in the courtyard of a convent
the people of Madrid
founded the fifth regiment.
Let's go commotion, commotion,
the uproar is over,
and we go to the shooting,
and we go to the shooting.
With Lister and Campesino,
with Galán and with Modesto,
with Commander Carlos
there's no militiaman afraid.
With the four battalions
that are defending Madrid
the best of Spain goes,
the reddest flower of the people.
With the fifth, fifth, fifth,
with the fifth regiment,
mother, I'm going to the front
to the lines of fire.
