Pelayos was a Spanish paramilitary youth organization of the Carlist political party Traditionalist Communion during the Second Spanish Republic.

History[edit]

Pelayos was founded by the Carlist movement of Spain during the early 1930s.^[1]^[2]^[3] The group was named after Pelagius of Córdoba (known as "Pelayo" in Spanish) who was killed as a martyr in 926AD.^[3] Members of Pelayos were given pre-military training and indoctrinated into the Carlist beliefs.^[3] During the Spanish Civil War, the magazine Pelayos (es) was created to spread Carlist values among Spanish youths.^[3]

Song of the Pelayos[edit]

Somos niños los Pelayos

mas seremos sin tardar

los soldados más valientes

que a su Patria salvarán.^[3]

We are children, the Pelayos

We will be without delay

The very valiant soldiers

That save their Fatherland.
