RSI 1944 Easter Card

[JLEES]

Hello,
I just purchased a 1944 RSI Easter Postcard and thought I'd share it with the other members of the forum. It seems to have a very strong anti-USA theme on it. The cards have been loaded in reverse order so they need to be rear from bottom upwards. Could someone kindly translate it into English for me?
Thanks
James

E' Pasqua, è primavera
e la mamma
col suo bambino se ne vanno felici
a casa dove papà aspetta con ansia
i cari liberatori che vengono dal cielo a rallegrare

Easter time, it's sprigtime
and mummy
with child, back happy
home, where daddy wait anxiously
dear liberators, coming from sky to cheer


Interesting double sense in using the term "Liberatori":
Liberatori like Liberators (bombers) and liberation carriers (in ironic sense, obviously).

Max,
Thanks for the nice translation. When you say, "liberation carriers," do you mean bringers of liberation, or freedom?

Yes this is the sense. Italian propaganda made a lot of "spin" about the fact that a plane called Liberator (which is written almost exactly as the Italian word Liberatore, and with the same sense: that brings liberty/freedom or that frees someone/something from someone/something. That helped a lot the "spinners", their job was made easier by this) was in reality killing people.

Generally speaking the "image", the sense of the propaganda was: this is the kind of liberty/freedom that the Americans want to give you.

Sory for the intrusion

Best regards

Simply perfect.

Maxis and FB,
Thanks for your great translation of the propaganda item. I don't know how well it was received in 1944 by the Northern Italians, but it is a great looking piece of propaganda.

What they liberated was one's soul from his body

DieHundIstLoss,
Therefore, it is not a promotional postcard for a fascist publication, but a postcard proclaiming fascism will liberate the soul in one's body? In your opinion, is that correct?

Indeed. Perhaps, I was a bit ambiguous. If so, I apologize, well said.
