Select language to translate this lyric
He was a shoemaker, nothing special
In a village whose name escaped me
Who made shoes so pretty, so there Elderly
That our lives seemed a little less heavy to carry
He put time, talent and heart into it
Thus he spent his life in the middle of our hours
And far from fine speeches, from great theories
At his task every day, one could say of him
He changed life
It's ©was a teacher, a simple teacher
Who thought that knowledge was a great treasure
That all the less than nothing had to get by
That school is everyone's right to learn
He put time, talent and heart into it
Thus he spent his life in the middle of our hours
And far from fine speeches, from great theories
At his task every day, one could say of him
He changed life
It's He was a little guy, just a little guy
Clumsy and dreamy, a bit of a failure in short
Thought himself useless, banished from other men
He cried on his saxophone
He put so much time, tears and pain into it
The dreams of his life, the prisons of his heart
And far from beautiful speeches, great theories
Inspired day after day by his breath and his cries
He changed life
