Piero Calamandrei[edit]

Hi! I have noticed your contributions to the article in subject, and would like to submit you the following rough translation I made of Calamandrei's "Ignominy Monument", maybe we could put it in a box or as a bilingual citation in within the article. Your opinion, help and corrections are appreciated! Thanks in advance and best of all, --Piero Montesacro (talk) 17:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Infamy Monument 

You'll get it
Kamarad Kesselring
The monument you demand from us, the Italians
But with which kind of stone it will be built
Is up to us to decide.
Not with the smoked ruins
Of the unarmed villages
Tortured by your extermination 
Not with the earth of the cemeteries
Where our young companions rest in serenity
Not with the untouched snow of the mountains
That defied you for two Winters 
Not with the Spring of these valleys
Which witnessed your escape
But only with the silence of the tortured
Harder than any stone
Only with this rocky pact
Sworn between free men
Who voluntarily assembled
For dignity and not for hatred 
Decided to redeem 
The shame and the terror of the world. 
On these roads if you will want to return
To our places you'll find us again
The dead and the alive with the same engagement
The People assembled around the monument 
Whose name is
Now and forever
RESISTANCE 

Piero Calamandrei
