Serom in quatter col Padola,
el Rodolfo, el Gaina e poeu mi:
quatter amis, quatter malnatt,
vegnu su insemma compagn di gatt.
Emm fa la guera in Albania,
poeu su in montagna a ciapà i ratt:
negher Todesch del la Wermacht,
mi fan morire domaa a pensagh!
Poeu m'hann cataa in d'una imboscada:
pugnn e pesciad e 'na fusilada...
Ma mi, ma mi, ma mi,
quaranta dì, quaranta nott,
A San Vittur a ciapaa i bott,
dormì de can, pien de malann!...
Ma mi, ma mi, ma mi,
quaranta dì, quaranta nott,
sbattuu de su, sbattuu de giò:
mi sont de quei che parlen no!
El Commissari 'na mattina
el me manda a ciamà lì per lì:
"Noi siamo qui, non sente alcun-
el me diseva 'sto brutt terron!
El me diseva - i tuoi compari
nui li pigliasse senza di te...
ma se parlasse ti firmo accà
il tuo condono: la libertà!
Fesso sì tu se resti contento
d'essere solo chiuso qua ddentro..."
Ma mi, ma mi, ma mi,
quaranta dì, quaranta nott,
A San Vittur a ciapaa i bott,
dormì de can, pien de malann!...
Ma mi, ma mi, ma mi,
quaranta dì, quaranta nott,
sbattuu de su, sbattuu de giò:
mi sont de quei che parlen no!
Sont saraa su in 'sta ratera
piena de nebbia, de fregg e de scur,
sotta a 'sti mur passen i tramm,
frecass e vita del ma Milan...
El coeur se streng, venn giò la sira,
me senti mal, e stoo minga in pee,
cucciaa in sul lett in d'on canton
me par de vess propri nissun!
L'è pegg che in guera staa su la tera:
la libertà la var 'na spiada!
Ma mi, ma mi, ma mi,
quaranta dì, quaranta nott,
A San Vittur a ciapaa i bott,
dormì de can, pien de malann!...
Ma mi, ma mi, ma mi,
quaranta dì, quaranta nott,
sbattuu de su, sbattuu de giò:
mi sont de quei che parlen no!
(gridando) Mi parli no!
