    ‘O surdato ‘nnamurato

    O surdato 'nnammurato (in Italian: Il soldato innamorato) is one of the


    most famous songs in the Neapolitan language, written by the Santegidian
    poet Aniello Califano. The text was written by Aniello Califano and set to
    music by Enrico Cannio in 1915. The song describes the sadness of a soldier
    fighting at the front during the First World War and who suffers from being
    distant from the woman he is in love with. The song is also recognized by
    most of the fans of the Naples football team as the historical anthem of the
    Neapolitan team.
    Ninì Grassia directed a film of the same name in 1983. On 9
    August 2013 at the San Paolo Stadium in Naples, on the
    occasion of the friendly match Napoli-Benfica, the new official
    anthem of the Azzurri team was presented: it is a
    reinterpretation of "'O surdato' nnammurato" composed by
    Francesco Sondelli.
