Looks like no one seems too have created a topic for this song, but when I listened too the complete version of it (as found in Music of Oceania), I actually found it rather interesting- and so here are the lyrics for those curious as too what they were saying or in need of a refresher in memory
"Sing to the sailors, on the floating fortress
Sing to the soldiers, on the battlefield
Sing to the airmen, in the burning azure
Sing to the farmers, rising yields
We are the children, builders of the future
And we the children swear too thee;
Loyal devotion
Fearless devotion
And too die with dignity
Sing to the thankful members of the party
Sing to the party policy
Sing to our country, mighty Oceania
And on peace and Victory"
This piece surprisingly appears several times on the soundtrack as an orchestral piece, especially on the song titled "The Inner Party Speech". Also, I noticed like it's counterpart "Oceania Tis' for Thee'" similarities too the Soviet Anthem in terms of melody (perhaps a little more in fact)
so, any thoughts on the song at all? What exactly would this song be considered in Oceania society? Perhaps the main anthem too the Youth League/ Spies? |
