I've procrastinated for a while on this video but I've decided to finish it now. I've struggled a bit with the translating and I'm aware that I've made some errors but it's the best I could

過ぎし日露の戦ひに
勇士の骨をうづめたる
忠霊塔を仰ぎ見よ
赤き血潮に色染めし
夕陽をあびて空たかく
千里曠野に聳えたり
酷寒零下三十度
銃も剣も砲身も
駒の蹄も凍るとき
すはや近づく敵の影
防寒服が重いぞと
互ひに顔を見合はせる
しつかりかぶる鉄かぶと
たちまちつくる散兵壕
我が連隊旗ひらひらと
見上げる空に日の丸の
銀翼光る爆撃機
弾に舞ひ立つ伝書鳩
戦ひやんで陣営の
かがやき冴える星の下
黄色い泥水汲み取つて
かしぐ飯盒に立つ湯気の
ぬくみに探ぐる肌守り
故郷いかにと語り合ふ
面影さらぬ戦友の
遺髪の前にいまひらく
慰問袋のキャラメルを
捧げる心君知るや
背嚢枕に夜もすがら
眠れぬ朝の大吹雪
東洋平和の為ならば
我等がいのち捨つるとも
なにか惜しまん日本の
生命線はここにあり
九千万のはらからと
ともに守らん満洲を

![Kan Bale lu Poblek Breizh - Song of the Breton Liberation Army
This song was written around the 70s, when the ARB or Breton Liberation Army operated around the region of Brittany, which obviously desired to create a free Breton state for the historically marginalized Breton people in northwestern France.
The song was written by Émile Le Scanf , or better known as Glenmor (a combination of sea and land in Breton). A well-travelled man in the 50s, he began to write and preform music in 1959 back in France. Over time he would assert his Breton identity into his music (often politically) as well as his appearance, growing out his hair and beard to look like the style of a Breton peasant. Glenmor began to engage more in nationalist activity and Breton activism, and in the midst of it he wrote le Kan bale lu poblek and later renamed to Kan bale an ARB, which would be adopted by the Breton Paramilitary group. As someone who has done so much to preserve the language and culture of Brittany; when he passed away in 1996 his funeral was attended by several thousand of his followers and friends he knew within the movement and they erected a statue into his tomb, in his hometown of Mael-Carhaix. In his tomb is inscribed Émile LE SCANV (1931-1996) Et voici bien ma terre, la vallée de mes amours. Glenmor
On a personal note, Glenmor is the reason why I made this video as over time I came to admire his deeds and duties to a language many began to regard as a dying culture, and certainly made me interested in learning Breton, despite always supporting the Breton identity for a long time. Like any other cultural movement (like Brittany and Corsica), Ive always supported them but never fully understood why. It was the realization that it was because just like them in a way, I am trying to preserve my own culture, as it is disappearing within my community and it makes me who I am and where I came from, my ancestors and my nations history, to which its what I take pride in.
Poent eo stagañ, Bretoned
Gant stourm meur ar vro
Poent eo skubañ an oaled
Kempenn an ero
Un deiz e vo sklaer an amzer
War henchoù don ar brezel kuzh
Un deiz e vo lorchus ha taer
Distro Arzhur war e march ruz
[Verse 2]
Dinech ha krenn, Bretoned

En noz tarzho kastellioù

Na kriz e vo heol an argad
Dar vourchizien ha dan treitour
Na kaer e vo luch an tantad
Da galon Breizh dhe argadour
En noz tarzho kastellioù
