Kalinka

Kalinka (Russian: Калинка) is a Russian volk song composed by Ivan Larionov in 1860. This song’s refrain has a simple lyrics and speedy tempo, part of the reff: Kalinka, Kalinka, Kalinka moya. V sadu yagoda malinka, malinka moya. So simple, isn’t it? The soloist of the Red Army Choir (Aleksandrov Ensemble) who usually sings this song is Vasily ‘Mr. Kalinka’ Ivanovich Shtefutsa. Vasily Shtefutsa is my favorite soloist in the Aleksandrov Ensemble.

Little snowberry, snowberry, snowberry of mine!
Little raspberry in the garden, my little raspberry!

Golden Party Badge

The Golden Party Badge (German: Goldenem Parteiabzeichen) was a special badge in the NSDAP. It was worn by the first 100,000 members of the NSDAP. The Golden Party Badge was the basic Nazi Party Badge with the addition of a gold wreath completely encircling the badge. The badge was awarded in two sizes: 30.5 mm for uniforms and 24 mm for civilian jackets.

The badge was associated with the Alte Kämpfer and those favored by the Führer: the Nazi Party Elite. The Alte Kämpfer (Old Fighters) was the term used to describe those who joined the NSDAP before 1930. Those who joined the Nazi Party after the party's electoral breakthrough in the September 1930 Reichstag elections were referred to with contempt as Septemberlinge by the Alte Kämpfer. After Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, there were a rush of applications from Germans to join the NSDAP. The "Golden Pheasants" regarded these new members with contempt, seeing their applications as more opportunism than idealism. The basic Nazi Party badge that these newer members wore were sarcastically referred to as "Die Angstbrosche" (The Badge of Fear) by the Old Guard.

Adolf Hitler's Golden Party Badge had the number '1'. He gave it to Magda Goebbels in his bunker just hours before he committed suicide. She called it, "The greatest honour any German could receive". It was awarded to her for being "The Greatest Mother in the Reich"

The '1' badge was stolen from a display in Russia in 2005. The guards thought the burglar that set off alarms was a cat and allowed him to escape.[2]
The only makers of the Golden Party Badge were the firms Joseph Fuess and Deschler & Sohn, both located in Munich.

Horst Wessel Lied

Click to enlarge pictures

Horst Wessel Lied (Horst Wessel Song) also known as Die Fahne Hoch (The Flag on High) is The Nazi Party or NSDAP (Nationalsozialistische Deutsch Arbeiter Partei) anthem and also used as German co-National anthem from 1933 to 1945, this song sung after the Deutschlandlied (National anthem of Germany from 1922, but just the 3rd stanza sung in the Federation Republic of Germany now).

Maybe you ask,” Why this song was called Horst Wessel Lied? ” Because it was written in 1929 by Horst Ludwig Wessel, a Sturmabteilung commander with SA-Sturmführer (Lieutenant) rank in Friedrichshain district of Berlin who murdered by unknown assailant, maybe the Assailant is a Communist party member, in February 1930. This song was first performed in Wessel’s Funeral. After that, it sung in many Sturmabteilung street parades.

When Der Führer Adolf Hitler became a Chancellor of the German Reich 3 years later, it recognized as a National symbol and co-National anthem. The NSDAP members always give a Hitlergruß (Nazi Salute) when they sing the first and last verses of the Horst Wessel Lied.

After the fall of the Third Reich, this song was banned in many nations (but not in my beloved Indonesia motherland). Now, this song also banned in Germany and Austria except for educational use.

The Lyrics:

Horst Wessel Lied

Deutsch:
Die Fahne hoch! Die Reihen fest geschlossen!
SA marschiert mit ruhig, festem Schritt.
Kam'raden, die Rotfront und Reaktion erschossen,
Marschier'n im Geist in unser'n Reihen mit.

Die Straße frei den braunen Batallionen.
Die Straße frei dem Sturmabteilungsmann!
Es schau'n aufs Hakenkreuz voll Hoffnung schon Millionen.
Der Tag für Freiheit und für Brot bricht an!

Zum letzten Mal wird Sturmalarm geblasen!
Zum Kampfe steh'n wir alle schon bereit!
Bald flattern Hitlerfahnen über alle Straßen.
Die Knechtschaft dauert nur noch kurze Zeit!

Die Fahne hoch! Die Reihen fest geschlossen!
SA marschiert mit ruhig-festem Schritt.
Kameraden, die Rotfront und Reaktion erschossen,
Marschieren im Geist in unseren Reihen mit.

English:

The flag on high! The ranks closed tightly!
SA marches with calm, firm steps.
Comrades shot by Red Front and reactionaries
March in spirit within our ranks.

Clear the streets for the brownshirts,
Clear the streets for the stormtroopers!
Millions are filled with hope, when they see the swastika,
The day of freedom and bread is dawning!

The call has sounded for the last time
We all stand ready for the fight!
Soon Hitler's flags will fly over all streets.
Our bondage will only last a short time more!

The flag on high! The ranks close tightly!
SA marches with calm, firm steps.
Comrades shot by Red Front and reactionaries
March in spirit within our ranks.
