Bella Ciao

Una mattina mi son svegliato
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Una mattina mi son svegliato
E ho trovato l’invasor

If I fall into the fire, let my story carry on
Through the echoes of the mountains when the night is almost gone
Every shadow that surrounds me cannot take my soul away
For the freedom in my heartbeat is the price I choose to pay

O partigiano, portami via
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
O partigiano, portami via
Che mi sento di morir

Raise your voice into the darkness, let it tear the silence down
We are stronger in the ashes than the tyrant with his crown
When the dawn begins to tremble and the world begins to rise
We stand fearless in the fire with the truth behind our eyes

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

Bury me high on the hillside where the winds can call my name
Where the fallen find redemption and the lost return from flame
Let the valley hear the promise that we swore with blood and light
We will never bow in silence — we will rise and we will fight

Here we stand against the darkness, never bending to the fall
Through the fire and the shadows we will rise above it all
Every heartbeat is a promise, every tear a battle cry
For the ones who came before us, we will never say goodbye

Bella ciao… bella ciao… bella ciao ciao ciao…
