One fine morning I woke up early
Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Ciao Ciao
One fine morning I woke up early
To find a fascist at my door
Oh partigiano, please take me with you
Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Ciao Ciao
Oh partigiano, please take me with you I'm not afraid anymore
And if I die, oh partigiano
Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Ciao Ciao
Bury me upon that mountain
Beneath the shadow of the flower
Show all the people, the people passing
Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Ciao Ciao
Show all the people, the people passing
Saying "Oh what a beautiful flower."
This is the flower di partigiano
Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Ciao Ciao
This is the flower di partigiano
Who died for Liberty
This is the flower di partigiano
Who died for Liberty
The exact origins are not known, but it is theorized to be based on a folk song of the late 19th century, sung by female workers (mondine) of the paddy fields ...
