The world is waking outside my window Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao Drags my senses into the sunlight For there are things that I must do
Wish me luck now, I have to leave you Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao With my friends now up to the city We're going to shake the Gates of Hell
And I will tell them - we will tell them Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao That our sunlight is not for franchise And wish the bastards drop down dead
Next time you see me I may be smiling Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao I'll be in prison or on the TV I'll say, "the sunlight dragged me here!"
