Thank you my friend, there are also more revolutionary songs but I didn't post them because I don't like any kind of incitement to violence

O Sardigna Patria Nostra
O Sardigna, custa est s’ora
chi ti depes ischidare
e sos sardos tot’impare
s’inde pesen in bonora
Sa richesa sun furande
in d’una manera indigna
e sas costas de Sardigna
de cimentu cucuzande
A su mere coloniale
aperieli trumba ‘e fogu
ca no paret prus su logu
pro su chi nos an fatt’heris
Una tanca fatt’a muru,
fatta a s’aferra aferra:
si su chelu fit in terra
si l’aìan serradu puru
O Sardigna, patria nostra,
de sa limba t’an privadu
e s’istoria t’an cubadu
pro sichire in custa giostra
Unu fronte de unione
e chi trunchet sas cadenas
non prus lagrimas nen penas
sotzialismu e libertade
Resistentzia, resistentzia
pro sa nostra libertade!
Chin sa sarda identidade
crescat s’indipendentzia!

Oh Sardinia Our Fatherland
Oh Sardinia, this is the time
when you must wake up
and may all Sardinians together
rise up readily
They are stealing our wealth
in a despicable manner
and overwhelming with concrete
the coasts of Sardinia
To the colonial master,
throw to him a swirl of fire
because it looks no longer the same country
after what they did to us yesterday
An enclosure fenced by a wall,
made seizing as much as you can:
if the sky were on earth
they'd enclose even that 1
Oh Sardinia, our fatherland,
they've deprived you of your language
and have concealed your history
to keep on this carousel
A united front
that breaks the chains,
never more tears nor pain,
but socialism and freedom
Resistance, resistance
for our freedom!
With Sardinian identity
may independence grow!
- 1. A reference to the Italian laws of the nineteenth century who imposed the forced privatization of lands in contrast to the ancient Sardinian custom of common use of farming and grazing lands. The privatization often took place with fraud, leading abuses and oppressions, and took along a trail of revenges and hatreds. This strophe is taken from the poem “Tancas serradas a muru” by Melchiorre Murenu (1803-1854), known as the Sardinian Homer because of his early blindness.

Well, the custom to hurl terrifying curses (often also rhymed) is an ancient Sardinian tradition (we call them “frastimu”), but usually they don’t imply a concrete fact. For example, you can often hear phrases like these among the common people: Ancu t’ochidan a istrale! (may you be killed with an ax) or Spistiddau morgias! (may you die by breaking your neck) but they are regarded more or less just as a joke or a way to release tension. You can find a lot of them in this satirical poem

Conversely, some songs are really violent. For example, this is a remake of “Eve of destruction” (by Barry McGuire). I don’t need (nor want) to translate its words, pictures speak for themselves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlHi0NWLtFs
