Dietmar “Didi” Hamann (testomonial)

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Cometh the moment
cometh the man.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Rough edged shoes
the circulation in your feet
tightened amongst the despair
kneeling on the grass
the skin feels the ground
it breathes experience
heat mirages on your face
the ball awaits the lace.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Enter the field
the air, the air
it livens the attendees
the blood in our veins flows once more
you let them know
they see
a weathered rock
upon a weathered shore.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Their dance
the samba
stops
the record replaced
by something never heard before
the Germanic roar
a legend made
a convert born.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Cometh the moment
cometh hope.

Notes

Thank you Didi Hamann. Welcome to the hall of fame. One of the greatest players to wear the red jersey. What you did on the 25th of May 2005 will never be forgotten.
