The chiral bosonization in non-abelian gauge theories is described starting directly from the QCD functional. For a given mass scale Λ, QCD may be equivalently represented by colour chiral fields, gauge fields and high energy fermions. The effective action for colour chiral fields may admit the existence of a colour skyrmion-boson with baryon number 2/3.
