Poster for the 1929 Soviet film Born in Flames

Lyrics

At a new life we took aim We set the vast conglomerates aflame The working class avowed its name Of America's mysteries none remain

We broke the hidden tyrannies Of the reptilian joint-stock companies Nor did their armed brutalities Ever bring us to our knees

We are born in flames We are born in flames We are born in flames

Into the darkness of the past We've thrown the shamans of the ruling class The struggle of the exploited mass Has broken the oppressors' lash

We are born in flames We are born in flames

The war of great heroic deeds Confirmed the death of inhuman creeds The people now can fill their needs On truth and reason now we feed

We are born in flames We are born in flames

Against external perturbation The party-hearth of culture education Achieves all history’s confirmation Our social democrat consolidation

In brotherhood and sisterhood We are prepared to give our blood Defend new life-crush those who would Deny the right for which we stood

We are born in flames We are born in flames We are born in flames We are born
