Greek Song "Το τραγούδι του κλόουν" (The clown's song : George-Menelaos Marinos)

I present to you a Greek song, symbolic, which as a teacher was part of the education of my students.

Το τραγούδι του κλόουν	The clown's song
Δεν έχεις πού να κοιμηθείς δανείσου το παπούτσι μου δεν έχεις πού να ζεσταθείς δανείσου την καρδιά μου δεν έχεις πού να πιεις νερό ξεδίψασε στο δάκρυ μου δεν έχεις πού να ονειρευτείς δανείσου τα όνειρά μου. Κρύβω βαθιά στις τσέπες μου δυο ψίχουλα ψωμί, κρύβω τον ήλιο, τα πουλιά κι ένα άσπρο γιασεμί κι όλα θα γίνουν αύριο καρβέλια, χρώματα για να χορτάσουν των παιδιών τα μάτια και τα στόματα.	You have nowhere to sleep borrow my shoe you have nowhere to warm up lend my heart you have nowhere to drink water he thirsted for my tears you have nowhere to dream borrow my dreams. I hide deep in my pockets two loaves of bread, I hide the sun, the birds and a white jasmine and everything will be done tomorrow loaves, colors to satiate the children eyes and mouths.
