Football Poet - Franck Ribéry Song Lyrics

He laid the bricks from dawn till dusk
A hammer's call, the city's husk
But in his mind, a field of green
A place where all his hopes were seen
From Boulogne sands to Lille's embrace
He chased a dream, he set the pace
They called him lost, a fading spark
But Franck held fire within the dark
With every step and every play
Franck turned the night into the day
From scars to stars, he ran so free
A blazing light for all to see
In Munich's red, he wrote his song
With Robben there, they moved along
Nine times a king, he wore the crown
In Europe's fields, he gained renown
With every touch and every stride
He played the game with love and pride
A true leader, with humble grace
He left his mark on every place
Les flammes du passé ont forgé mon cœur
Chaque épreuve affrontée sans peur
Des cendres froides, j'ai su renaître
Un nouveau jour pour tout connaître
Sur chaque pelouse, je me bats
Avec passion guidant mes pas
L'histoire d'un homme gravée dans le temps
Franck Ribéry, étoile des champs
With every step and every play
Franck turned the night into the day
From scars to stars, he ran so free
A blazing light for all to see
