Surella d'Irlanda (My Sister of Ireland) by Canta U Populu Corsu (The Corsican People is Singing), " In tribute to Bobby Sands and his companions who died in English jails", from 1978.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KuswDvtsXc

quote:

S'hè infiarata la mio rima chi n'aghju tamanta pena
Hè scritta nant'un giurnale a disgrazia chi ti mena
Ti casticheghja l'Inglese chi ti strigne la catena
Surella d'Irlanda.


Sò figliola di sta terra è aghju listessa sorte
La mio prigione hè francese è mute sò le so porte
È l'ordine culuniale mi hà cundannatu à morte
Surella d'Irlanda.

È to notte sò sangue è ammantate di dolu
Quandu ghjunghje la mitraglia qual'hè ch'ùn si sente solu
Una sera in Bastia m'anu pigliatu un figliolu
Surella d'Irlanda.

Paura ùn ne cunniscia chi figliolu era d'onore
Ma quandu l'anu intravatu s'hè strappatu lu mio core
Ma francaraghju lu mare per sparghje lu mio terrore
Surella d'Irlanda

Un ghjornu ci scriveremu quandu a pace turnerà
Quandu a mente sarà sciolta per pudecci abbraccià
È stu mondu d'inghjustizia ghjurgu ch'ellu cascherà
Surella d'Irlanda.

Translation I made from a French translation I found:

quote:

My rhyme is inflamed, this causes me great sorrow,
The shame that strikes you is written on the paper,
The English is punishing you and is tightening your chain,
My sister of Ireland

I am a daughter of this land and I share your fate,
My jail is French, with silent gates,
And the colonial order condemned me to death,
My sister of Ireland

Your nights are bloody and covered by a veil of grief,
Who doesn't feel alone when gunfire resonates,
One evening in Bastia, they took my son,
My sister of Ireland

He didn't know fear, as he was a man of honour,
But when he was taken my heart was torn apart,
But I'll cross the sea to spread my terror,
My sister of Ireland

One day, when the peace will be back, we will write,
When our spirits will be freed, as an embrace,
And this world of injustice will fall, I swear to you,
My sister of Ireland
