Canzone - Songs to learn Italian

Bella, ciao!

 

Song lyrics in Italian and English Translation

Una mattina mi son' svegliato,
O bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
Una mattina mi son' svegliato,
E ho trovato l'invasor.

O partigiano, portami via,
O bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
O partigiano, portami via,
Ché mi sento di morir.

E se io muoio da partigiano,
O bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
E se io muoio da partigiano,
Tu mi devi seppellir.

E seppellire lassù in montagna,
O bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
E seppellire lassù in montagna,
Sotto l'ombra di un bel fior.

Tutte le genti che passeranno,
O bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
Tutte le genti che passeranno,
Mi diranno: Che bel fior!

E quest' è il fiore del partigiano,
O bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, ciao, ciao!
E quest'è il fiore del partigiano,
Morto per la libertà.

E quest'è il fiore del partigiano,
Morto per la libertà.
One morning I woke up,
Oh, my beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye, bye, bye!
One morning I woke up,
And I found the invader.

Oh, partisan, take me away,
Oh, my beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye, bye, bye!
Oh, partisan, take me away,
For I feel like dying.

And if I die as a partisan,
Oh, my beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye, bye, bye!
And if I die as a partisan,
You must bury me.

And bury me up there in the mountain,
Oh, my beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye, bye, bye!
And bury me up there in the mountain,
Under the shadow of a beautiful flower.

All the people passing by,
Oh, my beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye, bye, bye!
All the people passing by,
Will tell me: What a beautiful flower!

And this is the flower of the partisan,
Oh, my beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye!
My beautiful, goodbye, bye, bye!
And this is the flower of the partisan,
Who died for freedom.

And this is the flower of the partisan,
Who died for freedom.
 

The song 'Bella ciao' is a libertarian hymn that became known by the end of World War II. The lyrics evoke the call of resistance of partisans who tried to fight against the Italian fascist oppression and the German Nazism.

Nowadays, the songs became popular for its appearance in the series 'Money Heist' (La casa de papel), where it's used as a resistance hymn by the characters.
