Although May Day is a commemoration of an old sad affair, workers nearly all around the World celebrate it for their acquisitions as well as declaring their demands. This is a public holiday in most countries. So I wish everybody a World without not only labor but also all type of exploitations.
There's a good old Italian folk song about this issue "Bella Ciao". Most of you may know it as a partisan song but actually it was a folk song. During the WWII people turned it to a partisan song. Original lyrics of the song is different but make sense with the May 1.

Original mondine Lyrics (Eng.) In the morning upon awaking O bella, ciao! bella, ciao! bella, ciao, ciao, ciao! In the morning upon awaking we must go to the rice-fields And between the insects and the mosquitoes O bella, ciao! bella, ciao! bella, ciao, ciao, ciao! And between the insects and the mosquitoes, a hard work I must perform. The boss standing tall with his club O bella, ciao! bella, ciao! bella, ciao, ciao, ciao! The boss standing tall with his club, and we bent at our hard work. O mamma mia, o what a torment O bella, ciao! bella, ciao! bella, ciao, ciao, ciao! O mamma mia, o what a torment, I have to cry for you each morn. But there will come a day that we all O bella, ciao! bella, ciao! bella, ciao, ciao, ciao! But there will come a day that we all will work in liberty |
