Translation....

(Sorry if it's a bit stilted... my Italian is by no means perfect).

One foot after the other,
One step after another,
One idea after another,
So many places I will see
And so many things I will think.

Who knows where I will go,
What I will do and what I will become.

But when I watch the course of my life
I will remember my grandfather's foot,
I will give thanks, and in the end
I'll wish that the course of life
Will bring joy and peace for everyone.

Unique photo and verse!
