Up there in a dusty closet
Among a thousand things I need no more
I saw, a bit worn out and disappointed,
a dear friend of my youth
Some grass blades
with the dried mud
between the nails he seemed to cherish still
He was a military boot

REFRAIN x2
    { Old boot, how much time is passed!
    How many illusions you make relive
    How many songs on your steps I've sang
    that I can't forget

    Over the dunes of the infinite desert
    Along the shores caressed by sea
    Nights and days with you I walked
    without ever rest

    Up there between the white tops
    of eternal immaculate snows facing the sun
    We picked edelweisses
    to gift them to a far away love
    
    Old boot, like a far time ago,
    amidst the mud, with the rain or the sun
    maybe you'd be able, if destiny'd have liked,
    to walk again.
    }

Old boot,
you make me relive
my youth
