Sciabolare literally means "to saber" or "to cut with a saber". It's a very specific and dramatic verb, not commonly found in everyday Italian conversation or even many songs.
In the context of the song, Tiziano Ferro uses it to describe the extravagant act of opening champagne bottles with a saber, often associated with a showy, materialistic lifestyle. He sings, "A noi non serve sciabolare lo champagne," meaning "We don't need to saber the champagne," contrasting this flashy display with a more authentic sense of victory and happiness.
Abbiamo Vinto Già feels like a victory lap sung from the rooftops of everyday life. Tiziano Ferro teams up with rapper J-AX to turn personal scars, social prejudice, and lonely nights into medals of honor. Instead of hiding pain, they shout the truth, toast to weaknesses, and wear every tattoo and tear as proof that simply loving and surviving means they have “already won.”
Behind the upbeat chorus lies a rallying cry for anyone who has ever felt judged for being different. The lyrics march through fears, addictions, and labels, then proudly defend the right to love without shame. Whether it is a mother’s unconditional devotion or friends standing shoulder to shoulder in the streets, the song reminds listeners that real success is measured in empathy, resilience, and solidarity—not money, fame, or social-media approval. Sing along, laugh at the old wounds, raise a glass to the imperfect you, and claim your victory right now.
