challenge. Play a non-trivial issue in a remarkable text: Das Lied der Partei , anthem of the Socialist Unity Party (SED), which ruled for almost half a century, East Germany.
This is the first edition, written in 1950 by Louis Fürnberg and sung by Ernst Busch .
I'm writing my comment, but your first look, because there will certainly be learned.
Two linguistic notes: my German is not great, so I gladly accept corrections to my translation. And I remember Partei - "party" - in German is feminine , so significant even in translation, I use a feminine pronoun.

My comment:
say I found it moving? Naive and touching. "Took control of life. Come on, comrades, the assault! "
This mythology of the party is also found in the chorus of Soviet
is celebrated our free nation
Secure bulwark of the friendship among the peoples!
The party of Lenin, which is the power of the people
It leads us to the triumph of communism!
Where instead of "communism" to read "peace and prosperity for this country's huge and absurd."
The question of the party is very serious question, I would say that our future depends on how it will be done in the coming years by the peoples of the world.

In an episode of South Park the eponymous town is invaded by hordes of hippies university, which, before it gets to Eric Cartman with Baygon, explain to the terrified actors that corporations ruin the world, Kyle said: " but it is terrible, what can we do? "el'hippy meets, finishing to roll the barrel: "Well ... here ... I thought we could organize a music festival," and of course it all ends with the cow. This was the wrong answer, the answer is the party.
Costanzo Preve argues that the dominant win "regularly" on the fact dominated by a very precise: the first have, that are capable of thinking, the whole concept of the social relations of production, the latter not, as they are relegated to empirical considerations on their daily lives. The great invention of Ul'janov the Partija Lenina, it is the making available to the masses, or rather their vanguards, a tool able to think strategically to the company, enabling their participation in the great and terrible agony of the dominant groups in conflict. The common people, led by "beggars of the pen" as Lenin or Bukharin, is thus able to compete with general, oil companies, lobbyists and rais. It is therefore not innocent cultural campaign, led by an unexpected cross-shareholding, from Berlusconi to Grillo, from Flores to Arcais D'Alessandro Sallusti, against the very concept of "party" and the category of "professional politicians". Without the Leninist party is not democracy, understood not in the liberal sense of the term, but in the Aristotelian sense of the primacy of demos, or in the sense Mazzini ("Democracy is government of the best and wisest").
Rebuilding (because they were all destroyed) the party, therefore, possibly avoiding the experience now that we did, the ingenuity with bits of song offered us his messianism. The white softens at first, after a little 'irritated.
