Beloved Anthem

Yesterday morning I was going for a walk when I encountered tho children who were singing Italy's national anthem (prodigy of world soccer championship??).
I was really surprised, it's an unusual thing to hear someone singing the anthem because it has never been loved too much... it's quite a bad anthem and almost no one knows the lyrics.
At the beginning, hearing the singing children, I had only positive thoughts regarding national unity, people consciousness, importance of our roots... Then the two children arrived to the part of the anthem that says "we're ready to die, Italy calls!!" causing all the positive thoughts to vanish suddenly...
