The "Peronist March" (Spanish: Marcha Peronista) is the anthem of the Peronist movement and the official song of the Justicialist Party of Argentina, previously known as the Peronist Party.^[1] Originally composed as a football club anthem by Juan Raimundo Streiff in the 1930s,^[2] its current lyrics, alluding to dictator Juan Domingo Perón and the movement he led and founded, were written by education minister Oscar Ivanissevich in 1948 and first recorded by Hugo del Carril in 1949.^[3]

The lyrics to this version were written by Alberto Marino and performed by Héctor Ángel Benedetti in 1953.^[7]
