The lyrics
|
Marcha de Oriamendi Por Dios, por la Patria y el Rey Lucharemos todos juntos Cueste lo que cueste Por Dios, por la Patria y el Rey |
March of Oriamendi For God, Fatherland and the King We shall fight, all together, At whatever cost, For God, Fatherland and the King |
The original lyrics were in Basque. The lyrics in Spanish were written in 1908 by Ignacio Baleztena Ascárate as "Marcha Jaimista". Over the years, several versions of "Oriamendi" have been in use. From 1936 to 1939, the line in the fourth verse - "venga el Rey de España a la corte de Madrid" - was replaced by "que los boinas rojas entren en Madrid" ("the red berets shall conquer Madrid"). In this context, "los boinas rojas" means the "requetés" or Carlist soldiers. The red berets are part of the Carlist uniform.
"God, Fatherland, King" (sometimes "God, Fatherland, Custom Law, King") is the Carlist motto.
Montejurra (Basque Jurramendi) is another battle of symbolic importance to Carlists.
Original Lyrics
Gora Jainko maite maitea
zagun denon jabe.
Gora España ta Euskalerria
ta bidezko errege.
Maite degu Euskalerria,
maite bere Fuero zarrak, '
asmo ontara jarriz daude '
beti Karlista indarrak. '
Gora Jainko illezkor!
Gora euskalduna, '
audo ondo Españia-ko '
errege bera duna! '

Long live God most beloved
let us all have him as master.
Long live Spain and the Basque Land
and the legitimate king.
We love the Basque Land,
we love its Traditional Laws,
for this ideal fight
always the Carlist forces.
Long live God inmortal !
Long live the Basque,
who of the Spanish
king is the best support !
