Montagnes Valdôtaines

Montagnes Valdôtaines (Eng. mountains of the Aosta Valley ) since 2006 has been the official anthem of the Italian Aosta Valley Autonomous Region. It was composed by Alfred Roland. But your original text did not refer to the Aosta Valley, but the Pyrenees. Her name was originally Montagnes Pyrénées ( dt mountains of the Pyrenees). The text could fit on the poet and composer Flaminie Porté. The song was very popular in the Aosta Valley even before the appointment of the anthem. This is because the piece had long been used in the regional news program La voix de la Vallée Italian public broadcaster Rai.

Text

Montagnes Valdôtaines Vous êtes mes amours, Hameau, clochers, Fontaines, Vous me plairez toujours. Rien n'est beau que si ma patrie, Rien n'est si doux que mon amie. Ô montagnards Chantez s chœur de mon pays La paix et le bonheur. Haltelà, haltelà, haltelà Les montagnards sont là.
