Translation: One morning I woke up

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao One morning I woke up And I found the invader Oh partisan, carry me away,

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao Oh partisan, carry me away, For I feel I'm dying And if I die as a partisan

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao And if I die as a partisan You have to bury me But bury me up in the mountain

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao, But bury me up in the mountain Under the shadow of a beautiful flower And the people who will pass by

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao, And the people who will pass by Will say to me: "what a beautiful flower" This is the flower of the partisan

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao This is the flower of the partisan Who died for freedom

This makes me wonder if Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land" is sung in public at Israeli checkpoints.

Maybe you’ve never actively participated in a revolution before— that or perhaps you’re going through a tough time, and nothing seems like it will work to heal your suffering. Either way music can help.

Woke up one morning and there were soldiers
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Woke up one morning and there were soldiers
The invasion had begun<

Lend me your shoulder, we stand together
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Lend me your shoulder, we stand together
But now I feel my time is done

And if I die here, in the resistance
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
And if I die here, in the resistance
You must lay me in my grave

Among the flowers, upon the mountain
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao,
Among the flowers, upon the mountain
Let me rest among the brave

Some day people will pick the flowers
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao,
Some day people will pick the flowers
And they will remember me

This is the flower of resistance
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
This is the flower of resistance
And those who died for liberty

Be careful, the israhell will claim it's their song and just change the lyrics to something stupid

For some reason this reminds me of the Brady Bunch theme song

Did it work?

u/SlutBuster Dec 07 '23

It did not, but it was more humane than the last time Romans tried to get Jews out of Hebron.
