''Eusko Gudariak'' (originally spelt ''Euzko Gudariak'', "Basque Soldiers") was the republican anthem of the Eusko Gudarostea, the army of the Basque Autonomous Government during the Spanish Civil War. The song used to refer to the defense of the Basque country within the Republic of Spain against the nationalist Spain army. It is also used as an anthem by ETA〔Juan Paredes allegedly sang Eusko Gudariak before being executed. (Execution of 5 terrorists in Spain sparks protests throughout Europe ), ''Chicago Tribune'', page 2, 28 September 1975〕 and the organizations orbiting the Basque National Liberation Movement. The music is a traditional Basque tune from Araba, named ''Atzo Bilbon nengoan''.〔(''«Euzko gudariak»'' ), Auñamendi Basque Encyclopaedia.〕 The lyrics were composed in 1932 by José María de Gárate, an officer of the EAJ-PNV. During the war, Captain Alejandro Lizaso Eizmendi added some verses. Basque :Euzko Gudariak gara :Euzkadi askatzeko :Gerturik daukagu odola :bere aldez emateko :Irrintzi bat entzunda :mendi tontorrean :goazen gudari danok :ikurrinan atzean English translation :We are the Basque Soldiers :to free the Basque Country :we have ready our blood :to give it for it :A irrintzi1 has been heard :on the top of the mountain, :let's go, all the soldiers :under the Basque flag : 1 ''Irrintzi'', literally "neigh", is a high-pitched scream used in celebrations and to call others at long distances. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eusko Gudariak」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
