Il Canto Dei Sanfedisti
Ginevra Di Marco
The Song of the Sanfedists
To the sound of the big drum
long live the stubborn people
To the sound of tambourines
the poor have risen
To the sound of bells
long live the commoners
To the sound of violins
death to the Jacobins.
Play, play
play Carmagnola
play the councils
long live the king with the Family.
At Saint Eremo so strong
they made a mess like ricotta
To this shameless cuckold
they put a mitre on his head
Majesty who betrayed you
this stomach that he had
the lords and knights
wanted to imprison you.
Play, play
play Carmagnola
play the councils
long live the king with the Family.
On the thirteenth of June
brave Saint Anthony
And the lords these scoundrels
they did so much harm
The French came
imposed high taxes
Liberty... Equality...
I rob for you
you rob for me.
Play, play
play Carmagnola
play the councils
long live the king with the Family.
