From Mitski: So I tried something... I made my own translation of the Italian song "Bella Ciao". I posted it here, but I want to hear your version in your language how you want to make it. Duet or share on Instagram, TikTok, or here on YouTube Shorts using this sound and #BellaCiaoWithMitski so I can see it and share your videos!
My version is inspired by the English version from Tom Waits and Marc Ribot with some help from Google, but I want you to bring your inspiration to it, whatever that might be.
Song start to practice: 1:36
The Chords:
Am, Dm, Em (these can be transposed)
My Translated Lyrics:
On one fine morning, I was awakened
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
One fine morning, I was awakened
To find the fascists at my door
Oh partigiano, take me with you
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
Partigiano, please take me with you
I don’t feel frightened anymore
And if I die here, oh partigiano
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
If I die here in the resistance
Then please lay me in my grave
Upon the mountain, among the flowers
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
Upon the mountain, among the flowers
Oh let me rest among the brave
Then some day people will see the flowers
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
People passing will see the flowers
And say how beautifully they bloom
These are the flowers of partigiano
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
See the flowers of partigiano
Who fought for freedom to their tomb
These are the flowers of partigiano
Oh see how beautifully they bloom
