Bella Ciao

Lyrics

Late this morning I heard the rifles Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao Late this morning I heard the rifles And it is time for me to go The fairest flower in all the mountains Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao The fairest flower in all the mountains Is the black rose that sets us free We will join her and fight together Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao We will join her and fight together Or we will surely die alone The winter's coming, the snows are on us Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao The winter's coming, the snows are on us Now we must build fires of our own The hungry servants have stopped complaining Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao The hungry servants have stopped complaining And all the masters wonder why Inside his castle the king is sleeping Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao Inside his castle the king is sleeping Let us be sure he sleeps too long A tattered banner as black as midnight Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao A tattered banner as black as midnight Can tell you where my love has gone Late this morning I heard the rifles Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao Late this morning I heard the rifles And it is time for me to go
