Proposed English Translation:
If I die fighting as a resistor
O bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao
If I die fighting as a resistor
You must come and bury me

Bury me there, up in the mountains
O bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao
Bury me there, up in the mountains
Shade my grave with a lovely flower

"Ah that's the flower of the resistor - "
O bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao
"Ah that's the flower of the resistor
who died for freedom's sake!"
