Jihlava (Czech pronunciation: [ˈjɪɦlava] ( listen); German: Iglau) is a city in the Czech Republic. Jihlava is a centre of the Vysočina Region, situated on the Jihlava river (German Igel) on the ancient frontier between Moravia and Bohemia, and is the oldest mining town in the Czech Republic, ca. 50 years older than Kutná Hora.
Among the principal buildings are the early gothic churches of St. Jacob, Friars Minor church of Our Lady and Dominican church of Holy Cross, baroque church of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the Municipal Hall and number of municipal houses containing gothic and renaissance details. There is also a Jewish cemetery, containing some remarkable monuments including tombstone of the parents of Gustav Mahler.
The city's German name, Iglau, is derived from the German word for hedgehog, Igel, hence the hedgehog on the coat of arms. An old Slavic settlement upon a ford was moved on a nearby hill where the mining town was founded (ca. 1240) by king Václav I, in the Middle Ages inhabited mostly by Germans (coming mostly from Northern Bavaria and Upper Saxony). Medieval mines surrounded by mining settlement were localized outside the walls of medieval town (local name Stare Hory). According to legend, the silver mines were worked as early as 799. There is, however, no historical evidence for such statements.
Gustav Mahler (German pronunciation: [ˈɡʊstaf ˈmaːlɐ]; 7 July 1860 – 18 May 1911) was a late-Romantic Austrian composer and one of the leading conductors of his generation. He was born in the village of Kalischt, Bohemia, in what was then the Austrian Empire, now Kaliště in the Czech Republic. Then his family moved to nearby Iglau (now Jihlava) where Mahler grew up.
As a composer, he acted as a bridge between the 19th century Austro-German tradition and the modernism of the early 20th century. While in his lifetime his status as a conductor was established beyond question, his own music gained wide popularity only after periods of relative neglect which included a ban on its performance in much of Europe during the Nazi era. After 1945 the music was discovered and championed by a new generation of listeners; Mahler then became one of the most frequently performed and recorded of all composers, a position he has sustained into the 21st century.
Born in humble circumstances, Mahler displayed his musical gifts at an early age. After graduating from the Vienna Conservatory in 1878, he held a succession of conducting posts of rising importance in the opera houses of Europe, culminating in his appointment in 1897 as director of the Vienna Court Opera (Hofoper). During his ten years in Vienna, Mahler—who had converted to Catholicism from Judaism to secure the post—experienced regular opposition and hostility from the anti-Semitic press. Nevertheless, his innovative productions and insistence on the highest performance standards ensured his reputation as one of the greatest of opera conductors, particularly as an interpreter of the stage works of Wagner and Mozart. Late in his life he was briefly director of New York's Metropolitan Opera and the New York Philharmonic.

Il n’est pas où un enfant pleure
Où la haine a cloué le cœur
Des hommes épris de vengeance
Je ne l’ai pas vu dans nos guerres
Quelques fois pas dans nos prières
N’implorant qu’un peu de chance
Je ne l’ai pas vu souvent
Dans une main tendue cherchant
A se mettre en lumière
Dans le flou qu’on tolère
Mais je l’ai vu là où des hommes à genoux
Demandent pardon et avouent
Ne pas croire en sa présence
Et je l’ai vu loin des villes, des cathédrales
Là où l’amour détruit le mal
Dans le miracle d’une naissance
Et je l’ai vu dans le silence
Il n’est pas où les hommes sourds
N’entendent plus rien à l’amour
Là où les mots sont ceux qui blessent
Je ne l’ai pas vu dans les étoiles
Mais dans l’homme le plus banal
Au détour d’une prouesse
Je ne l’ai pas vu vraiment
Dans nos yeux perdus, attendant
Un peu de vérité
Ni dans la peur d’aimer
Mais je l’ai vu là où des hommes à genoux
Demandent pardon et avouent
Ne pas croire en sa présence
Et je l’ai vu dans un regard, dans un geste
Dans le courage qui nous reste
Après des vies de souffrances
Et je l’ai vu dans le silence
Je l’ai vu dans le silence
S’il est vrai que nos vies sont entre ses mains
Dès que je pense à lui, je sens d’instinct
Un peu de sa force au fond de moi
Je n’attends rien de lui que je n’ai déjà
Qu’importe qu’on le prie
Et qu’on y croit ou pas
Tant diront qu’il n’existe pas
Mais je l’ai vu dans nos villes nos cathédrales
Là où les gens trouvent normal
D’effacer leur différence
Et je l’ai vu quand l’or de son souffle chaud
M’a montré un chemin plus beau
Comme une intime évidence
J’ai ressenti sa présence
I see the sign
What do you want from me
I see the sign
What do you want from me
I said we're living in a reckless world
I said we're living in a reckless world
Chorus:
The only, the only, the only one for me is Jah
They say the .........
Is greener on the other side
Really I don't mind
What do you want from me
Chorus
The only one is Jah
I said we're living in a reckless world
Sometimes it's hard for me
To stay on my feet
It's my reality
It's just my reality
There's no favours for me
So what do you want from me
It's only Jah love, so what do you want from me
