Risorgimento (Tear Down the Walls) Lyrics

We are just one thousand
But against all odds we sail
To unify all Italy
Or die if we fail

In Marsala
Soon the Bourbon force we see
3000 soldiers block our way
In Calatafimi

Risorgimento, Risorgimento
Risorgimento Italy
Stand strong, hold your ground
Not a yard we yield

Attach the bayonets
In blood we soak the field
Tear down the walls that divide
Garibaldi leads us on to victory

The red shirts march where you decide
On battlefields we'll forge history
In Palermo
All Sicily is freed

Forward to Messina
Let the Bourbon soldiers bleed
The Battle of Volturno
Italy's fate will decide

Kill and stab and bathe in glory
History we write
Tear down the walls that divide
On battlefields we'll forge history

Tear down the walls that divide
Garibaldi leads us on to victory
The red shirts march where you decide
On battlefields we'll forge history

Tear down the walls that divide
Garibaldi leads us on to victory
The red shirts march where you decide
On battlefields we'll forge history
