Warszawianka 1905 roku [Варшавянка; La Varsovienne; ¡A las barricadas!]

Autori Vari / Different Authors / Différents Auteurs

You're welcome Ricardo, Akoniet is my alternate name
Btw, I'm sure there are still some Varšavjanka hidden around the world ;)
Also there are actually Czech and Portuguese versions, but I don't know anything about these lyrics. I don't have any information…
The Portuguese version was probably sung during the Carnation Revolution, and also Czech lyrics in a songbook "brigáda zpívá", I think :3
but this is too difficult for me to find…

3p. Il “Canto degli Iževiti” (Песня ижевцев) di Nikolaj Arnold (1918)
3p. The “Izhevite Song” (Песня ижевцев” by Nikolay Arnold (1918)

The traditional melody of the “Varšavjanka” was so popular around 1918, that it was used also for a number of Russian anti-communist songs. First of all, this “Izhevite song” composed by Nikolaj Arnold, a former lieutenant of the Imperial Russian army. The song is based on the uprising of Izhevsk (Udmurtia), in August 1918, when the workers of the local, historical arms factory (established in 1800 by the czar Paul I) insurged against the Red Army. On March 5, 1917, workers at the plant formed a worker's soviet, which included representatives of the workers, the army and of other citizens. Two days later the factory administration resigned and was replaced with elected officials. By mid-September of the same year, Bolsheviks took control of both the council... (Continues)

3r. Порваны цепи кровавого гнета - La "Varšavjanka Bianca" (1918/19)
3r. Порваны цепи кровавого гнета - The "White Varshavjanka" (1918-19)

Ancora dalla rivolta di Iževsk-Votkinsk, in Udmurtia, del 1918-19, che si saldò alla Controrivoluzione “Bianca”. Come si può vedere, la Varšavjanka era diventata totalmente “bipartisan” per la sua enorme popolarità. Questa versione è, in grandi linee, una versione alternativa del Canto degli Iževiti, ed è nota tout court come la “Varšavianka Bianca”.

Another song from the Izhevsk-Votkinsk uprising of 1918-19, which tied up with the “White” counter-revolution. As you can see, Varshavianka had become totally bipartisan due to its huge popularity. As a matter of fact, this version is an alternative version of the Izhevite Song, and is known as the “White Varshavjanka”. [RV]

3q. Пробил час грозный избавленья ("The terrible hour of revenge has come") [1905]

A song from the 1st Russian revolution of 1905. It was first recited as a poem on a workers' meeting in Sormovo (now a city district of Nizhny Novgorod, but a separate city at that time) on 9 July 1905, six months after the “Bloody Sunday” which marked the beginning of the uprising in St. Petersburg. The poem was later distributed in broadsides reading “To be sung to the tune of Varshavyanka”, but this is possible only from the 2nd verse onwards. The 1st verse and the refrain do not match the Varshavyanka tune, and a possible tune could be that of the song “The Red Banner”. The author of the song is unknown. [RV]

Un testo dal contenuto simile alla Rossijanka con lo stesso inizio (“La Russia geme” ecc.) si trova in un quaderno di canzoni manoscritte proveniente dai primi anni della Rivoluzione Russa, appartenente al gruppo RSDRP della Manifattura di Lino Romanov (ex Romanovo-Borisoglebsk, ora Tutaev, nella regione di Jaroslavl).

1η. A Varsoviana de 1905 - Traduzione portoghese di Erick Fishuk
1η. A Varsoviana de 1905 - Portuguese translation by Erick Fishuk

Esta é uma canção que pediam pra legendar desde que lancei o canal Eslavo (YouTube), em 2010. Trata-se da canção socialista polonesa A Varsoviana, traduzida a partir de sua versão russa. Em polonês, ela é conhecida como Warszawianka, e em russo, “Варшавянка”, ambas com a mesma pronúncia: “Varshavianka”. Às vezes se diz também A Varsoviana de 1905, pra não ser confundida com A Varsoviana de 1831, hino nacionalista polonês composto durante uma revolta contra o Império Russo em 1830-31.
A música de 1905 teve a letra escrita em 1879 por Wacław Święcicki (1848-1900), que então estava preso por militância socialista. Mesmo assim, dependendo de quem executa, a letra varia bastante. Ela foi publicada inicialmente em 1883 na revista ilegal polonesa Proletariat, quando... (Continues)

2α. Op de barricade! - La versione neerlandese (olandese-fiamminga) di Jaap van de Merwe (1972)
2α. Op de barricade! - The Dutch version by Jaap van de Merwe (1972)

This powerful and very beautiful Dutch version of both the Warszawianka and !A las barricadas! could be called a “mixed” version with original characters. It was written in 1972 by Jaap van de Merwe together with Rob van de Meeberg, Marius Monkau, Nelly Frijda and Marjan Kweksilber. Jaap van de Merwe and Marjan Kweksilber also sing the song. The song shows a number of variants in the lyrics, and some points are controversial in the lyrics available in the Web; btw, the lyrics shown in the video do not always match what it is really sung. So, we have decided to transcribe the lyrics by direct listening, with a number of notes. The lyrics are written in a form of Dutch somewhat archaic, or high-falutin, even in pronunciation...

"La hermosa Varsoviana o en ruso Varchavianka, es una canción revolucionaria polaca, muy popular en Rusia en el período revolucionario de 1905 y 1917. La canción originalmente Polaca debe su letra a Wacław Święcicki, que escribió la letra de está canción en su celda del Pabellón X de la cárcel de la Ciudadela de Varsovia en 1879 condenado por sus actividades socialistas. La canción ganó su nombre durante una manifestación del 1º de mayo de 1905 en la ciudad de Varsovia donde se convirtió en el himno de los trabajadores manifestantes. La versión rusa está atribuida a Gleb Maksimilianovich Krzyzanowski, compañero de Lenin, escritor y economista, líder del movimiento revolucionario en Rusia, del estado soviético y del PCUS, quien la realizó en 1897. En español es conocida por la versión anarquista A las Barricadas." - Facebook

C’est sur une version tardive de la mélodie, après la répression du soulèvement en 1879, que Vaclav Sventsitsky composa le chant révolutionnaire "Warszawianka" (connu sous le nom de "Varsovienne de 1905"), que Gleb Krjijanovski traduisit en russe en 1897. Le détachement des « Zouaves de la Mort » ( « śmierci Żuawy ») avait été créé en février 1863 à Ojców, à partir de volontaires, par l’officier français François Rochebrune (1830-1871), sur le modèle des zouaves français, une unité de fantassins légers volontaires. Ces Zouaves de la mort portaient un gilet noir orné d’une croix blanche proclamant dans les batailles qu’ils ne battraient... (Continues)

La Varsovienne de 1905 est un hymne que chantèrent les ouvriers du royaume de Pologne au cours de la révolution de 1905-1907, lorsque 30 d’entre eux furent fusillés pendant les manifestations du Premier mai à Varsovie. Wacław Święcicki en avait rédigé les paroles en 1879, lors de son incarcération dans le Bloc 10 de la citadelle de Varsovie, en raison de ses activités au sein du parti socialiste. La musique avait été composée par son codétenu, le musicien Józef Pławiński qui s’était inspiré en grande partie du chant du soulèvement de janvier, la „Marche des Zouaves”. A l’époque communiste, la 2ème strophe de la version polonaise fut modifiée pour en faire disparaître les références religieuses.

Nel 1938, il poeta inglese Randall Swingler, allora ventinovenne, pubblicò nel volume The Left Song Book, edito dalla casa editrice Victor Gollancz ltd., una sua versione della Varšavjanka, o meglio, di Whirlwinds of Danger. Il canto era stato arrangiato dal compositore Alan Bush; gli stessi Randall Swingler e Alan Bush erano i curatori dell'intero volume per conto della Workers' Music Association.

Di Whirlwinds of Danger il canto mantiene il titolo e riprende, inalterata, la prima strofa (il ritornello è simile, ma leggermente modificato). Il resto del canto è completamente differente ed è particolarmente incentrato sul colonialismo inglese. La versione di Randall Swingler non ebbe mai grande popolarità.

《바르샤바 시민(폴란드어: Warszawianka)》은 폴란드의 민중가요이다. 가사는 제정 러시아 치하에 정치범으로 수감된 폴란드인이자 사회주의자였던 바츠와브 슈비엥치츠키(폴란드어: Wacław Święcicki)가 1879년에 쓴 시에서 유래되었으며, 작곡은 유제프 프와빈스키(폴란드어: Józef Pławiński)가 하였다. 이 곡은 1905년에 일어난 노동절 시위 도중 폴란드인 노동자들이 이 곡을 투쟁가로 쓰게 되자 비로소 지금의 곡명이 붙여진 것이다.

가사는 다양한 버전이 존재하며, 무산계급의 혁명을 다룬 가사부터 잃어버린 조국을 되찾는다는 가사까지 다양하게 존재한다. 또한, 소련 당국의 멜로디아사의 엘범을 통해 블라디미르 레닌이 인터내셔널가등의 노래와 더불어 생전 좋아하던 노래라고 알려져 있다.

1936년 스페인 내전이 발발했을 때 스페인의 《전국노동자동맹(스페인어: Confederación Nacional del Trabajo 꼰페데라씨온 나씨오날 델 뜨라바호, CNT)》에 의해 《A las Barricadas(바리게이트를 향하여)》라는 스페인어 개사곡으로 바뀌었다.

바르샤바 시민이라는 곡은 1905년도에 많이 불린 곡과 그 이전에 쓰였던 1830년판 군가의 두 가지 버전이 존재한다. 흔히들 바르샤바 시민을 이야기 하면 1905년 버전을 가리킨다.

@ Borec

Carissimo Borec, ho visto che hai riproposto in approvazione una presupposta versione latina ("Carmen de Warsaw") della Warszawianka. Questa, a suo tempo, era stata già cassata in quanto si tratta evidentemente di una "traduzione" fatta da qualcuno con il tool automatico di Google, o comunque da qualcuno che non conosce neppure l'abc della lingua latina, una vera e propria accozzaglia di parole messe a caso mischiate con parole e frasi in inglese. Ti pregherei quindi di non riproporla più, perché tanto non verrà mai approvata.

Colgo l'occasione per dirti anche che la versione persiana che avevi messo in approvazione è stata eliminata, ma stavolta -semplicemente- perché era già presente nella pagina, ed inviata da tu stesso. Vi ho però integrato il video della canzone.

Grazie ancora e a risentirci!

@ Riccardo Venturi

Dear Riccardo,

The title of the 1918 Finnish version of Waszavianka (VARŠAVJANKA) has been translated into plain Finnish as Varsovan Laulu. This is basically all right, because that's what it is in Finnish. However, there's a but: people who know the song refer to it as VARŠAVJANKA according to the Polish original, whereas Varsovan laulu usually refers to Moonshine or Rectified spirit smuggled to Finland mainly from Estonia during the prohibition (1919 - 1932). Therefore, I would be inclined to have Varsovan Laulu deleted in this context.

Sono ben cosciente, nel caso di pagine come questa o di altre, che le vecchie canzoni rivoluzionarie, di lotta e di libertà (citi anche l' “Internazionale”, che ebbe origine durante la Comune di Parigi...) hanno fatto una pessima fine nei paesi dell'ex “socialismo reale”, ed è inevitabile. Quello che hai scritto fotografa alla perfezione quel che è stato e quel che è adesso; e c'è poco o nulla da fare, tutto qui. Grazie ancora, carissima.

@ Juha Rämö

Dear Juha, I have deleted the “alcoholic” title, not without a certain regret in my heart. Now that I know that I had given a version of the Varšavjanka the title of “Moonshine”, I feel very amused deep in my roots. Well, there is no Irish version of the song in this page but, in case I should find one, I could give it the title of “Poitín”...

Now I ask you a service. There's another Finnish version which seems to have originated in the US. It was recorded 1916 by the Finnish-American artist Juho Koskelo for “Työväen-Opisto” in Smithville, Minnesota. I have listened to the version and checked if it matches one of the versions already included in the site, but I got the impression that it is totally different. Of course, the recording is very old (and it is always touching to listen to something recorded 105 years ago...), and I may be wrong. The lyrics aren't to be found anywhere. Could you kindly help us solve this mystery...?

Thank you in advance, of course with a generous cup of moonshine...!

@ Riccardo Venturi

Dear Riccardo,

I've been trying to put my finger on the lyrics of Juho Koskelo's version ever since it was posted here a month ago. Here are the facts:
- I'm not able to reproduce them by listening. The quality of this recording from YouTube is just not good enough to do that.
- You're right that they are different from the 3 other Finnish versions above. The only thing I can tell you is that the first line reads "Vainoovat viimat nyt yllämme viuhuu" (close to Santtu Piri's 1908 version).
- Written lyrics of this version seem to be quite impossible to find, but I'll keep searching.
- The song was not recorded at Columbia Studios which refers to Columbia Pictures but at Columbia Records. Neither was it recorded on May 24, 1916 but on the last day of 1916 as shown by this database record
- The original title of this version is Warshavjanken which looks like a Swedish translation of the Polish one.

@ Boreč

Dear Boreč,

Congratulations for having been able to find the lyrics of the rare Finnish version 5 of Warszavianka. As you may have noticed, I have also been trying to find them ever since you posted the audio link of this version on September 9. On Monday this week, I finally got hold of a book where they are printed (Ilpo Saunio & Timo Tuovinen: Edestä aattehen - suomalaisia työväenlauluja 1890 - 1938). However, the lyrics in thet book are slightly different from the ones you posted, i.e. there are two different words. Therefore, I would very much like to find out the source of the lyrics you have contributed.

Yours sincerely,

Juha Rämö

Good morning Juha :)
Yes, this finnish varszavianka text was posted in the comments section of a Finnish blog.
I listened to the audio and checked the lyrics to make sure they were correct, so I think this is the official one :3
However, I was not aware of the existence of songbook "suomalaisia työväenlauluja" with this text...

2s1. Kara Notalar ("Black Notes"): Herkes barikata

This very interesting, contemporary Turkish version of ¡A las barricadas!, contributed by Boreč / Borec / Борец (no doubt one of the keenest Warszawianka collectors in the world), originates overtly in struggling Anarchist milieus. “Kara Notalar” (“Black Notes” in Turkish) may be the name of the band performing this (also musically interesting) version, but attribution is uncertain due to understandable lack of information -being an Anarchist band might lead you into jail, and even worse, in Erdoğan's sultanate. This is also why an English translation has been provided: the song is certainly focused on the current situation in Turkey, but the everlasting spirit of the old Spanish song lingers on. [RV]

“Puolan vallankumouslaulu Varshavjanka ilmestyi ensimmäisen kerran suomeksi käännettynä Sosialidemokraattien Työväen Kalenterissa v. 1909 nimellä Taistoihin tuimiin. Laulun sanat ja sävel poikkeavat nykyisin käytössä olevista.”

“The Polish revolutionary song Varshavjanka first appeared in Finnish translated as “Taistoihin tuimiin” in the 'Social-Democrat Workers' Calendary' in 1909. The song's lyrics and melody are different from those currently in use.”

So in the source page linked by Boreč. Consistently therewith, 1g4 is no “Finnish-American version from 1916”, but an entirely Finnish version from 1909. Santtu Piri's 1908 version is only 1 year older. So I have changed all the 1g4 section. Sadly enough, the user who provided information is unknown. The lyrics are different, but in Juho Koskelo's American recording from 1916 the melody is the same as the classic... (Continues)

@ Boreč

Dear Boreč,

Thank you very much for the link. I was quite surprised that this kind of content exists in a blog owned by Uusi Suomi which is considered a conservative right-wing medium. Well, you never know...

Anyway, the person who posted the lyrics writes in her message that the source of the lyrics is the same book I mentioned (Saunio - Tuovinen: Edestä aattehen, Helsinki 1978). The small differences I detected when comparing the two texts must, therefore, be typing mistakes. So, if I have your permission, I will post the corrected lyrics and ask the Administrator to replace the existing ones with them. Please let me know.

Dear Riccardo,

Thank you so much for the invaluable link to Työväen Kalenteri 1909.

It seems that the Finnish section of Warszawianka requires quite a lot of rewriting and restructuring. I will e-mail you soon about that.

Juha Rämö 2021/10/28 - 23:11

@ Juha Rämö

I already had the suspicion that the whole Finnish section of this page needs rewriting and restructuring on the basis of Saunio-Tuovinen's work. We often rely on web sources which may be scant and/or inaccurate; however, a printed work like Saunio-Tuovinen's must be the result of a lifetime's study. I am waiting for your e-mail. This is a neverending work in neverending progress.

Thank you!

3x. Versione italiana come canto partigiano
3x. Italian version as Partisan song

The song is no true (= translated or adapted) version of the Warszawianka, but appears to be clearly a Partisan song to the tune of the Warszawianka (or rather, of A las barricadas! - many Italians had fought in the Spanish civil war and they no doubt knew the song in that form). Its form as an “Alpine choir” is also a sign, because most of the Italian partisan war took place in mountainous areas of Northern Italy under Nazi occupation. No further information on the song is available at present; I have transcribed the lyrics as they are sung and provided an English translation. Research is going on. [RV]

In 1908, another Warszavianka version titled Puolan työväen marssi (Polish Workers' March) was published in J. Kaikka's broadside ballad collection Työväenlauluja (Working Class Songs). In the same year, the lyrics of the song, written by an unknown author and reading »Wihurit wihaisna taas waikeroi« (Strong rushes of wind angrily moan), were published in a Social Democratic songbook and a song booklet for workers with the title Puolan veripäivien marssi (Polish Blood-Days March). Slightly altered and with one stanza added, the same lyrics were published eleven years later in Punaisen sotilaan laulukirja (A Red Soldier's Songbook, St. Petersburg, 1919) by Elvira Willman-Eloranta (1875-1925), this time with the title Varsovalainen (The Varsovian).
