ché schiava di Roma
Iddio la creò.

"Noi fummo da secoli
calpesti, derisi,
perché non siam popolo,
perché siam divisi.
Raccolgaci un'unica
bandiera, una speme:
di fonderci insieme
già l'ora suonò.
Uniamoci, amiamoci,
l'unione e l'amore
rivelano ai popoli
le vie del Signore.
Giuriamo far libero
il suolo natio:
uniti, per Dio,
chi vincer ci può?"

dovunque è Legnano.
Ogn'uom di Ferruccio,
ha il core, ha la mano.
I bimbi d'Italia
si chiaman Balilla,
il suon d'ogni squilla
i Vespri suonò.
Son giunchi che piegano

già l'Aquila d'Austria
le penne ha perdute.
Il sangue d'Italia,
il sangue Polacco,
bevé, col cosacco,
ma il cor le bruciò."
