Espero Internacia, Nos. 58 and 59

Batal-Himno (Beatty) is a tune apparently composed by Ann E. Beatty for her Esperanto translation of Julia Ward Howe's Battle Hymn of the Republic, entitled "Batal-Himno de la Respubliko". Both the translation and the tune were published in Espero Internacia (hymn no. 58), ca. 1920, the first significant Esperanto-language hymnal published in the United States. Because Beatty's refrain differs metrically from Howe's, this tune is not interchangeable with Battle Hymn.
