Let’s try to imagine each shoe in the song, different and unique, as a person: each person has his own story, his passions, the good days and the bad ones. How difficult is it to put yourself in the shoes of others, listen to them and understand them? This song teaches us that trying is a very difficult experiment, but it can make us learn a lot! We pay attention to those around us: meeting each other can become a wonderful surprise.

English translation:
I found two splashed rain boots along the roadside and that’s why I wore them
and suddenly I was a cowboy being chased by Indians along the river infested with crocodiles.
Then I put the moccasins on made in bison leather becoming an Indian who scanned the horizon
Even if I didn’t want to, I had to go to war to fight the soldiers who came to take the earth away from me!

Enter into a thousand shoes, in each shoe you will learn that each one has its own story
with his dreams and his troubles.

With astronaut boots over the moon you will play but you will feel alone if you don’t have a friend there!
I found a lot of soccer shoes in a closet and I experienced the thrill of a great penalty kick, but wearing another pair, I felt sorry for the unsaved shot that I missed as a goalkeeper!

Enter into a thousand shoes, in each shoe you will learn that each one has its own story with his dreams and his troubles.

With the pirate’s boots you will travel through so many seas, but if you don’t find your land, you won’t have a home!

You have to learn not to say about anyone
„How blessed you are!“
Until you were in his shoes for a while, then you have to walk there for at least a thousand hours, to truly understand what he feels in his heart!

Enter into a thousand shoes and each shoe will tell you that everyone is lucky to have what he has…
That everyone is lucky to have what he has.

Original Italian Lyrics:
Ho trovato due stivali dalla pioggia inzaccherati
Lungo il ciglio della strada e per questo li ho indossati
E di colpo ero un cowboy inseguito dagli indiani
Lungo il fiume infestato dai caimani.
Poi ho messo i mocassini
Fatti in pelle di bisonte
Diventando un pellerossa che scrutava l’orizzonte
Anche se non lo volevo mi toccava far la guerra
Ai soldati arrivati per portarmi via la terra!

Entra dentro mille scarpe, in ogni scarpa imparerai
Che ognuno ha la sua storia
Coi suoi sogni e coi suoi guai,
Con gli stivali da astronauta sopra la luna giocherai
Ma ti sentirai da solo se un amico lì non hai!
Ho trovato in un armadio tante scarpe da pallone
E ho vissuto l’emozione di un gran calcio di rigore,
Ma indossando un altro paio ho provato il dispiacere
Per il tiro non parato che ho mancato da portiere!

Entra dentro mille scarpe, in ogni scarpa imparerai
Che ognuno ha la sua storia
Coi suoi sogni e coi suoi guai,
Con gli stivali del pirata per tanti mari viaggerai,
Ma se non trovi la tua terra una casa non avrai!

Devi imparare a non dire di nessuno
“Che beato!”
Fino a quando per un po’ nelle sue scarpe non sei stato
Poi ci devi camminare per almeno mille ore
Per capire veramente cosa sente nel suo cuore!

Entra dentro mille scarpe ed ogni scarpa ti dirà
Che ognuno è fortunato ad avere quel che ha,
Che ognuno è fortunato ad avere quel che ha.
