The original song of Jamie Foyers was written about a soldier who died in the 1812 storming of Fort St Michael at Burgos during the Napoleonic wars. Ewan MacColl rewrote the song, using the original tune, as a tribute to those young men from many countries who gave their lives fighting for the republicans against fascism in the Spanish Civil war (1936-39).
