I have noticed there is no tab for the original version of this song, the one brave Italian partisans sang
during their days of militancy in the Resistance against Nazis and fascists, so I decided to submit one
myself.
Bella Ciao means a lot to my country (Italy, of course) as it's widely known as the most famous
anti-fascist hymn ever sung. However, it has become a symbol of freedom and resistance all over the world,
it has been translated into several languages and played in different situations and places. That's why I
think non-Italian speakers too could (and should) enjoy this. We don't exactly know who wrote it, and that
makes the whole thing even more powerful, I believe.
As to Italian speakers... the lyrics change according to the website you check, I just tried to put the ones
that sounded most right/nice to me.
Please rate and leave a comment, if you wish!
Ora e sempre Resistenza.
Una mattina mi
son svegliato
,
O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, c
iao, ciao!
Una mattina mi
son svegliato
e ho trovato l
'invasor.
O partigiano,
portami via,
O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, c
iao, ciao!
O partigiano,
portami via,
ché mi sento d
i morir.
E se io muoio
da partigiano,
O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, c
iao, ciao!
E se io muoio
da partigiano,
tu mi devi sep
pellir.
Seppellire las
sù in montagna
,
O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, c
iao, ciao!
E seppellire l
assù in montag
na
Sotto l'ombra
di un bel fior
.
E le genti che
passeranno
O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, c
iao, ciao!
E le genti che
passeranno
Ti diranno «Ch
e bel fior!»
«È questo il f
iore del parti
giano»,
O bella, ciao! Bella, ciao!
Bella, ciao, c
iao, ciao!
«È questo il f
iore del parti
giano
morto per la l
ibertà!»
