There's a valley in Spain called Jarama
It's a place that we all know so well
It is there that we gave of our manhood
And most of our brave comrades fell
We are proud of the British Battalion
And the stand for Madrid that they made
For they fought like true sons of the soil
As part of the 15th brigade
People ask, was the war worth it?
The answer's simple to me,yes.
Because it means the people throughout the world
unterstand what fascism meant,
it was a rehearsal point“yes” for the dive-bombs of Hitler.
But was a resistance of the spanish people
that allowed the second world war to be fought and to be won
because they motivated people from Norway to China,
the people of these country today
are only here today,
because what the Spanish republican army
showed the world what could we done.
With the rest of the International Column
In the stand for the freedom of Spain
We swore in that Valley of Jarama
That fascism never will reign
There's a valley in Spain called Jarama
It's a place that we all know so well
It is there that we gave of our manhood
And most of our brave comrades fell
There's a valley in Spain called Jarama
It's a place that we all know so well
It is there that we gave of our manhood
And most of our brave comrades fell
Now we've left that dark valley of sorrow
And its memory we ne'er shall forget
So before we continue this reunion
Let us stand to our glorious dead
