Bella Ciao Lyrics in English Becky G

“Bella Ciao” is an old Italian protest anthem that Becky G revives with her signature Spanglish spark. In the lyrics, the singer wakes up at dawn to discover l’invasor—the enemy—has arrived. Instead of hiding, she calls on a partigiano (resistance fighter) to let her join the struggle. Her pledge is total: if she dies fighting, she wants to be buried high in the mountains so every passer-by will see a beautiful flower and remember that she “died for freedom.”

By blending Italian, Spanish, and English, Becky G turns a century-old folk song into a global, cross-cultural rallying cry. The upbeat melody contrasts with the solemn vow in the lyrics, reminding listeners that courage and hope can bloom even in dark times—just like the symbolic flower on the mountain.
