Dm TRANSLATION FROM ITALIAN


Una mattina mi son svegliato One morning I woke up
D7 O bella ciao...
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao and I found the invader
Gm Dm O Partisan take me away
una mattina mi son svegliato I feel I’m dying
A7 Dm If I die as a partisan
e ho trovato l’invasor. you have to bury me
Bury me there on the mountains
O partigiano portami via in the shadow of a beautiful flower
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao The people passing by
o partigiano portami via will say: What a beautiful flower
che mi sento di morir. This is the partisan’s flower
who died for freedom
E se io muoio da partigiano
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e se io muoio da partigiano
tu mi devi seppellir

Seppellire lassù in montagna


O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Seppellire lassù in montagna
sotto l’ombra di un bel fior

E le genti che passeranno


O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e le genti che passeranno
mi diranno che bel fior

Questo è il fiore del partigiano


O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
e questo è il fiore del partigiano
morto per la libertà

... e questo è il fiore del partigiano


morto per la libertà

When the spring has opened the green doors

The caravans with the camels are gone away
My love is gone to the hills of Bingöl

I'm lost and stranger on these roads


Stranger on the lakes, rivers, fields
I'm a rover, I'm a stranger here
Tell me, sister, where are the ways to Bingöl.

GEORGIAN LYRICS LATIN CHARACTERS ENGLISH TRANSLATION


საყვარლის საფლავს ვეძებდი, Saq’varlis saplavs vedzebdi, I was looking for sweetheart's grave,
ვერ ვნახე! დაკარგულიყო! ver vnakhe! dak’arguliq’o! But I couldn't find it, it was lost.
გულამოსკვნილი ვტიროდი gulamosk’vnili vt’irodi I cried my heart out:
„სადა ხარ, ჩემო სულიკო?“ „Sada khar, chemo Sulik’o?“ 'Where are you, my Suliko?"

ეკალში ვარდი შევნიშნე, Ek’alshi vardi shevnishne, I noticed rose among thorns,
ობლად რომ ამოსულიყო, oblad rom amosuliq’o, Which was blossoming there alone.
გულის ფანცქალით ვკითხავდი gulis pantskalit vk’itkhavdi With excitement I asked:
„შენ ხომ არა ხარ სულიკო?!“ „Shen khom ara khar Sulik’o?!“ "Are you my Suliko?!"
სულგანაბული ბულბული Sulganabuli bulbuli Nightingale was silently
ფოთლებში მიმალულიყო,
potlebshi mimaluliq’o, Hiding in the bushes'
მივეხმატკბილე ჩიტუნას
mivekhmat’k’bile chit’unas I inquired with soft voice:
„შენ ხომ არა ხარ სულიკო?!“
„Shen khom ara khar Sulik’o?!“ "Aren't you my Suliko?!"
შეიფრთქიალა მგოსანმა,
ყვავილს ნისკარტი შეახო, Sheiprtkiala mgosanma, Bird floundered,
ჩაიკვნეს-ჩაიჭიკჭიკა, q’vavils nisk’art’i sheakho, And touched her beak to the flower,
თითქოს სთქვა „დიახ, დიახო!“ chaik’vnes-chaich’ik’ch’ik’a, Twittered and groaned,
titkos stkva „Diakh, diakho!“ As if She said: "Yes, I am!"

Η ΓEPAKINA YERAKINA YERAKINA

Κίνησε η Γερακίνα Kinise i Yerakina Yerakina moved


για νερό κρύο να φέρει Yia nero krio na feri to fetch cold water

Nτρουν ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν Droum, droum, droum, droum, droum Droum, droum, droum, droum, droum

Κι έπεσε μες στο πηγάδι Ki epese me sto pigadi She fell in the well,
κι έβγαλε φωνή μεγάλη Ki evgale foni megali and out came her big voice

Κι έτρεξε ο κόσμος όλος Ki etrekse o kosmos olos And everyone came running,
κι έτρεξα κι εγώ καημένος Ki etreksa kego o kaimenos and I came running

Γερακίνα θα σε βγάλω Yerakina tha se vgalo Yerakina, I'll pull you out,
και γυναίκα θα σε πάρω Ke yineka tha se paro and take you for my wife.

Η ΓEPAKINA YERAKINA YERAKINA

Κίνησε η Γερακίνα Kinise i Yerakina Yerakina moved


για νερό κρύο να φέρει Yia nero krio na feri to fetch cold water

Nτρουν ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν Droum, droum, droum, droum, droum Droum, droum, droum, droum, droum
τα βραχιόλια της βροντούν Ta vrahiolia tis vrondoun her bracelets thundered
Nτρουν ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν Droum, droum, droum, droum, droum Droum, droum, droum, droum, droum
τα βραχιόλια της βροντούν Ta vrahiolia tis vrondoun her bracelets thundered

Κι έπεσε μες στο πηγάδι Ki epese me sto pigadi She fell in the well,
κι έβγαλε φωνή μεγάλη Ki evgale foni megali and out came her big voice

Κι έτρεξε ο κόσμος όλος Ki etrekse o kosmos olos And everyone came running,
κι έτρεξα κι εγώ καημένος Ki etreksa kego o kaimenos and I came running

Γερακίνα θα σε βγάλω Yerakina tha se vgalo Yerakina, I'll pull you out,
και γυναίκα θα σε πάρω Ke yineka tha se paro and take you for my wife.

Македонско девојче MAKEDONSKO DEVOJČE MACEDONIAN GIRL


Македонско девојче, китка шарена, Makedonsko devojče, kitka šarena Macedonian girl, a colorful bouquet,
во градина набрана дар подарена, Vo gradina nabrana dar podarena picked up in the garden and presented as a gift.

Дали има н' овој бели свет Da li ima na-ovoj beli svet Is there in this world
поубаво девојче од Македонче? Po-ubavo devojče ot makedonče? a more beautiful girl than Macedonian?
Нема, нема не ќе се роди Nema, nema, ne ke se rodi No, there isn't, and it won't be born,
поубаво девојче од Македонче. Po-ubavo devojče ot makedonče a more beautiful girl than Macedonian?

Нема ѕвезди полични од твоите очи, Nema zvezdi polični od tvojte oči There are no stars which are more beautiful than your eyes,
да се ноќе на небо, ден ќе раздени. Da se noke na nebo den kerasdeni if they are in the sky at night a day will dawn.

Кога коси расплети како коприна Koga kosi raspletiš kako koprina When she unbraids her hair like a silk,
лична е, и полична, од самовила. Lična si i polična od samovila. she is pretty, more pretty than a fairy.

Кога песна запее славеј натпее, Koga pesna zapee slavej natpee When she sings a song she outsings a nightingale,
кога оро заигра срце разигра. Koga oro zaigra, srce razigra when she dances oro, she makes the heart dance, too.

[ lyrics ]
A kalte nakht, a nebldike finster umetum A cold night, foggy, and darkness everywhere
sheyt a yingele fartroiert un kukt zikh arum A boy stands sadly and looks around.
Fun regn shtist im hor a vant Only a wall protects him from the rain
A koshikl trogt er in hant He holds a basket in his hand
un zayne oygn betn yedn shtum and his eyes beg everyone silently:

Ikh hob shoyn nit keyn koyekh mer arumtsugeyn in gaz I don't have any strength left to walk the streets
hungerig un opgerizn fun dem regn naz hungry and ragged, wet from the rain,
Ikh shlep arum zikh fun baginen I shlep around from dawn.
keyner git nisht tsu fardinen Nobody gives me any earnings,
ale lakhn, makhn fun mir shpaz everyone laughs and makes fun of me

Kupitye koyft zhe, koyft zhe papirosn Buy my cigarettes!


trukene fun regn nisht fargozn Dry ones, not wet from the rain
Koyft she bilik benemones Buy real cheap,
koyft un hot oyf mir rakhmones Buy and have pity on me.
ratevet fun hunger mikh atsind Save me from hunger now

Kupitye koyft she shvebelakh antikn Buy my matches, wonderful ones, the best,
dermit verd ir a yosiml derkvikn and with that you will uplift an orphan.
Umzizt mayn shrayen un mayn loyfn My screaming and my running will be for naught.
keyner vil bay mir nit koyfn Nobody wants to buy from me-
oysgeyn vel ikh muzn vi a hunt I will have to perish like a dog.

Mayn tate in milkhome hot farloyrn zayne hent My father lost his hands in the war
mayn mame hot di tsores mer oyshaltn nisht gekent My mother couldn't bear her troubles anymore
Yung in keyver zi getribn And was driven to her grave at a young age
bin ikh oyf der velt farblibn I was left on this earth
ungliklekh un elnt vi a shteyn unhappy and alone like a stone

Breklekh klayb ikh oyf tsum ezn oyf dem kaltn mark I gather crumbs to eat in the cold market
a harte bank iz mayn geleger in dem kaltn park A hard bench in the cold park is my bed
In dertsu di politziantn, and on top of that, the police
shlog mikh shvern kantn beat me with the edges of their swords and sticks
z'helft nit mayn betn, mayn geveyn my pleas and my cries are of no use.

Kupitye koyft zhe, koyft zhe papirosn...

Ikh hob gehat a shvesterl, a kind fun der natur I had a little sister, a child of nature
mit mir tsusamen zikh geshlept hot zi a gants yor Together we shlepped around for an entire year.
Mit ir geven iz mir fil gringer, laykhter vern flegt When with her, it was much easier for me.
der hunger, ven ikh fleg a kuk ton nor oyf ir My hunger'd weaken when I glanced at her

Mit amol gevorn iz zi shvakh un zeyer krank Suddenly she became weak and sick
oyf mayne hent iz zi geshtorbn oyf a gazn-bank died in my arms on a street bench
Un az ikh hob zi farloyrn, And when I lost her
hob ikh alts ongevoyrn I lost everything
zol der toyt shoyn kumen oykh tsu mir Let death come already for me, too.

Kupitye koyft zhe, koyft zhe papirosn...
