C'Era Un Re (original)C'Era Un Re (translation)
In Piemonte c’era un re con manie di grandezza In Piedmont there was a king with delusions of grandeur
Re Vittorio Emanuele con un regno da operetta King Vittorio Emanuele with an operetta kingdom
Ed intorno c’erano tanti altri regni tutti grandi And around there were many other kingdoms all great
Così per disperazione lui cercò una soluzione So out of desperation he sought a solution
Cominciò da Cavour, Mazzini e Garibaldi.It began with Cavour, Mazzini and Garibaldi.
Poi coinvolse tutti quanti Then he got everyone involved
E tra Bixio ed altri mille e tra fiamme e scintille And between Bixio and a thousand others and between flames and sparks
Completarono a Teano il loro folle colpo di mano… They completed their insane coup d'état at Teano ...
E e e così si inventarono l’Italia! And and that's how Italy was invented!
E e e così si inventarono l’Italia! And and that's how Italy was invented!
Così sotto una sola bandiera cominciò la tiritera Thus began the spiel under a single flag
Tra i briganti ed i Savoia.Between the brigands and the Savoy.
Colpa tua, colpa mia Your fault, my fault
Tutti sempre insoddisfatti.All always dissatisfied.
Nord e sud, cani e gatti North and south, cats and dogs
Metternich l’aveva detto… Ma pensarono a un dispetto Metternich had said it ... But they thought of a spite
C’era troppa differenza tra Vigevano e Cosenza There was too much difference between Vigevano and Cosenza
E tra Alpi e Madonie proprio niente da spartire And between the Alps and the Madonie nothing to do
Ma la cosa più tremenda è che la differenza aumenta But the most terrible thing is that the difference increases
Perciò attenti al manuale, rileggetevi il copione So beware of the manual, reread the script
Sventolare il tricolore è una vera provocazione Waving the flag is a real provocation
E' concesso solo a un patto, in un’unica occasione It is only granted under a pact, on a single occasion
Solo se la nazionale batte tutti nel pallone Only if the national team beats everyone in the ball
E e e così si inventarono l’Italia! And and that's how Italy was invented!
E e e così si inventarono l’Italia! And and that's how Italy was invented!
Questa figlia dei Savoia, questa Italia da operetta This daughter of the Savoy, this Italy of operetta
Questa Italia dei valori lunga lunga, stretta stretta This Italy of values ​​long long, narrow tight
Da Pontida a Mercogliano, da Monopoli a Belluno From Pontida to Mercogliano, from Monopoli to Belluno
Tutti avanti miei prodi!All ahead my heroes!
tutti figli di nessuno all children of none
Chi è rimasto imbottigliato cerca scampo contromano Those who have remained bottled seek escape the wrong way
Chi è fedele alla Padania e chi a Napolitano Who is loyal to Padania and who to Napolitano
Ma che bella rimpatriata, ma che bella fregatura! What a beautiful reunion, but what a beautiful rip-off!
C'è chi brucia la bandiera e chi incendia spazzatura…There are those who burn the flag and those who set fire to garbage ...
