The bricklayer

Strong man - labourer - get up early.
Start the day without fear.
Bricklayer - hands at work...
With your sweat and your calluses you build infra-structures.
Bricklayer, don't let it get you down; show everyone: this is your time!

Whether doctor or welder, carpenter or bricklayer
Push the hierarchy aside; we are all human and fighters!
At sunrise I see splendour; the bricklayer goes his way
Every day - with full commitment - to feed his children.

You get up when the sun rises.
You stop when it goes down.

With a helmet on your head, gloves and a hammer in your hand - these are the tools of the trade.
To finish the building, dear brother, take care,
Give this work a value; give the job a status.
