Italian brothers,

Italy has arisen,

With Scipio's helmet

binding her head.

Where is Victory?

Let her bow down,

For God has made her

The slave of Rome.

Let us gather in legions,

Ready to die!

Italy has called!

 

We for centuries

Have been downtrodden and derided,

Because we are not a people,

Because we are divided.

Let one flag, one hope

Bring us together;

The hour has struck

For us to join forces.

Let us gather in legions,

Ready to die!

Italy has called!

 

Let us unite and love one another;

For union and love

Reveal to peoples

The way of the Lord

Let us swear to free

Our native soil;

If we are united under God,

Who can conquer us?

Let us gather in legions,

Ready to die!

Italy has called!

 

From the Alps to Sicily,

Everywhere it is Legnano;

Every man has the heart

and hand of Ferruccio.

The children of Italy

Are all called Balilla;

Every trumpet blast

Sounds the (Sicilian) Vespers.

Let us gather in legions,

Ready to die!

Italy has called!

 

Mercenary swords

Are feeble reeds,

And the Austrian eagle

Has lost his plumes.

This eagle that drunk the blood

of Italy and Poland,

togheter with the Cossack,

But this has burned his gut.

Let us gather in legions,

Ready to die!

Italy has called!
