“And the fruitful fields of England. Shall be trod by beasts alone.”  This gives them courage to live alone and in the wild, away from any human being.

 Beasts of every land and clime,

He promises a greater future for his fellow comrades(“..golden future”), who shall be free and happy. This freedom is what they’ve all dreamed of, because they aren’t even working for their own sake. In stanza 6 the song says: “All must toil for freedom’s sake”. As they want to break free, to work for their own sake. Not only humans want to have meaning in their life, it also applies to animals - especially the ones on Animal Farm. They’ll no longer be oppressed by their cruel rule.

The message of “Beats of England” is that all animals shall be free, from the chains of the man. In the 5th verse, it goes “ On the day that sets us free!”  Which is a great example of the message, that all animals one will be free. The song gives a good imagery of the land without humans to ruin it, and instead having the animals to control the now “fruitful fields of England “ 

 

The song, “Beast of England”, appeal to the animals feelings of independence and freedom. As we see in stance two, it says: “Tyrant man shall be o’erthrown, and the fruitful fields of England shall be trods by beats alone”, which explain that the animals doesn’t need man. The animals believe that they would be able to run a society without man, and the world would be a better place if they ruled it themselves, as it says in stance five: “Bright will shine the fields of England, purer shall it’s waters be, sweeter yet shall blow it’s breezes, on the day that sets us free”. Here they try to tell how freedom will make the world a better place, even though nothing has changed physically. The song appeals to the same feeling every animal gets when they’re done working a whole day in the field and gets to relax in the stable.

This quote paints a picture of a happier and even more beautiful England, if Man was taken away from the animal´s everyday life. It explicitly mentions that this change will occur, when the animals are set free, or befree themselves.  

We see the how the dream of freedom is alive and evolving in the song - 

“Bright will shine the fields of England, pure shall it’s waters be, sweeter yet shall blow its breezes on the day that sets us free” (Page 13, verse 5) This quite surely proves how freedom is described and how important it is towards the farm animals. To get the freedom everybody must work hard - “For that day we all must labour, Though we die before it break; Cows and horses, geese and turkeys, All must toil for freedom’s sake” (Page 13, verse 6) “Ring shall vanish from our noses, and the harness from our back, bit and spur shall rust forever, cruel whips no more shall crack.” (Page 13, verse 3)

First we see how freedom is kind of a feeling, a setting - but as we move on, we see how it would actually affect the animals.
