MILANO - Elisa Migliorati è la nuova Miss Padania 2010 (con la corona di Lucia dei Promessi Sposi :)

She's very Northern :) and wants to study languages. Her surname means "getting better" :)

That strange crown is typical of North Italy, from Manzoni biggest Italian love story "The betrothed", 18 June @ San Siro stadium: http://www.miamilan.com/2010/04/i-promessi-sposi-betrothed-by-manzoni.html

presenti ovviamente Umberto Bossi, il sindaco di Milano Letizia Moratti, l'immancabile Emilio Fede ^_^, Francesco Alberoni, Ivana Spagna, il regista Renzo Martinelli, ecc.

Va pensiero
(Nabucco by Giuseppe Verdi)

ovviamente hanno fatto il Va pensiero, inno padano, mentre le ragazze sfilavano in bianco

while the girls had beautiful dresses, they put this, the anthem of North Italy ("Go, thought, on golden wings"), 'cause we don't recognize ourselves much in the Italian anthem ("Fratelli d'Italia"), 'cause it says that Italy is slave of Rome (?!) ...maybe hundreds years ago. Nowadays if there wasn't Milan and the North, Italy would be a very poor country.

Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate,
va, ti posa sui clivi, sui colli,
ore olezzano tepide e molli
l'aure dolci del suolo natal!

Del Giordano le rive saluta
di Sione le torri atterrate...

Oh, mia patria si bella e perduta
Oh, remembranza si cara e fatal!

Arpa d'or dei fatidici vati,
perchè muta del salice pendi?

Le memorie nel petto raccendi,
ci favella del tempo che fu!

O simile di Solima ai fatti
traggi un suono di crudo lamento,
o t'inspiri il Signore un concento
che ne infonda al patire virtù!
