"Nosotros'll Meet Again" is a 1939 song by English language singer Vera Lynn with music and lyrics composed and written past English songwriters Ross Parker and Hughie Charles. The song is one of the most famous of the 2nd World War era, and resonated with soldiers going off to fight also every bit their families and loved ones.

The song was published by Michael Ross Limited, whose directors included Louis Carris, Ross Parker and Norman Groovy. Swell, an English pianist also collaborated with Parker and Hughie Charles on "We'll Meet Again" and many other songs published by the visitor, including "There'll Always Be an England" and "I'k In Dearest For The Terminal Time". The song's original recording featured Lynn accompanied by Arthur Young on Novachord (an early synthesizer), while a rerecording in 1953 featured a more lavish instrumentation and a chorus of British Military machine personnel.^{[1] [2]}
