Italian term or phrase: in alto i cuori e fuori la voce
Fratelli romanisti, questi sono i 90 minuti piu importanti della nostra storia, sono i 90 minuti che aspettiamo da 18 anni. Oggi tocca a noi, oggi piu che mai. Popolo giallorosso, in alto i cuori e fuori la voce...

English translation:Lift up your hearts and let your voices ring out!
Explanation:
A suggestion...

I particularly like 'lift up your hearts' as it is quite idiomatic, coming from the English translation of the Sursum Corda.

neutral  Oliver Lawrence: Not quite. The first part suggests they need consoling after being sad, and the verb 'belt' needs an object

come on you Roma, let's hear you!


Explanation:
I have a feeling this is more the right tone. "Come on you Spurs", for example (Spurs is a football club in London) has 26000 Ghits, so although grammatically questionable it is undoubtedly the sort of thing football fans would say and understand

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  David Turnbull: shades of the infamous Delia Smith episode! I think the language of football (among other things) is often quite a lot more sentimental in Italy than the UK (apart from in the curva of course!). Bear in mind Zampa is more like an announcer than an ultra.

neutral  Russell Jones: For non Norwich City fans, that was "Let's be 'avin you", not "Let's be 'earing you"
