Italian wartime song info


This song was written by/for/about North Italian partisans in WW2.

Bella Ciao

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
che 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

Seppellire lassù in montagna
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Seppellire lassù in montagna
sotto l'ombra di un bel fior

E le genti che passeranno
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e le genti che passeranno
mi diranno che bel fior

Questo è il fiore del partigiano
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
questo è il fiore del partigiano
morto per la libertà

Italian into the english. Is that right?

One morning son waked up to me
Or beautiful hello, beautiful hello, beautiful hello hello hello
one morning son waked up to me
and I have found the invasor.
Or partisan portami via
Or beautiful hello, beautiful hello, beautiful hello hello hello
or partisan portami via
that I feel myself to die.
And if I die from partisan
Or beautiful hello, beautiful hello, beautiful hello hello hello
and if I die from partisan
you must bury to me
To bury lassù in mountain
Or beautiful hello, beautiful hello, beautiful hello hello hello
To bury lassù in mountain
under the shadow of a beautiful one fior
And people that will pass
Or beautiful hello, beautiful hello, beautiful hello hello hello
and people that will pass
they will say to me that beautiful fior
This is the flower of the partisan
Or beautiful hello, beautiful hello, beautiful hello hello hello
this is the flower of the partisan
died for the freedom


I shall return-

General Douglas MacArthur

Babelfish is atrocious, isn't it.

I'll translate the first few lines:

One morning I woke up
Chorus: O sweetheart bye, sweetheart bye, sweetheart bye bye bye
One morning I woke up
and found the invader

O partisan, take me with you
Chorus
O partisan, take me with you
Cuz the misery here is killin me.

Stay tuned for Pt 2 tomorrow!
