See, one morning when I awakened
Ciao bella, ciao bella, ciao bella
Ciao, ciao, ciao...
My homeland which I found its hands tied up
Is under occupation all around
My homeland which I found its hands tied up
Is under occupation all around
You, the Partisan
Take me also with you
Ciao bella, ciao bella, ciao bella
Ciao, ciao, ciao...
Take me also with you up to your mountains
Can't stand the captivity
Take me also with you up to your mountains
Can't stand the captivity
If I die in a partisan way
Ciao bella, ciao bella, ciao bella
Ciao, ciao, ciao...
You must bury me with your own hands
With your own hands in your own land
You must bury me with your own hands
With your own hands in your own land
The sun is going to rise
The flower is going to bloom
Ciao bella, ciao bella, ciao bella
Ciao, ciao, ciao...
All passers-by will say "hi"
Hi, you beautiful flower
All passers-by will say "hi"
Hi, you beautiful flower
