Bella Ciao

Italian folk song
“Bella ciao” (“Goodbye beautiful”) is an Italian protest folk song that originated in the hardships of the mondine, the paddy field workers in the late 19th century who sang it to protest against harsh working conditions in the paddy fields of North Italy. The song was modified and adopted as an anthem of the anti-fascist resistance by the Italian partisans between 1943 and 1945 during the Italian Resistance, the resistance of Italian partisans against the Nazi German forces occupying Italy, during the Italian Civil War, and the Italian partisan struggle against the fascist Italian Social Republic and its Nazi German allies. Versions of “Bella ciao” are still sung worldwide as an anti-fascist hymn of freedom and resistance.

Lyrics :

As shared by my friend Ms Jennie - UK, who is half Italian : It basically says
one morning I woke up
Goodbye beautiful....
One morning I wake up and I find the invador
Partisan take me away
Goodbye beautiful..,.
Partisan take me away as I feel like dying and If I die as a partisan
Good bye beautiful...
And if I die as a partisan you must bury me
But Bury me up there in the mountains
Goodbye beautiful...
And if you bury me up in the mountains under the shade of a beautiful flower all the people that will pass by
Goodbye beautiful..
And all the people that will pass by will say to me what a beautiful flower as this is the flower of the partisan
Goodbye beautiful..,
This is the flower of the partisan who died for freedom
This is the flower of the partisan who died for freedom
