Sir, I am a poor man
I have not money nor home
so I beg in the street,
so very alone
I don't ask for your money,
I don't ask for your purse
but I beg thee for something
with even more worth
I don't ask you for house
or mansion or hut,
I won't pick your pockets
and your purse I won't cut
I won't ask for fine clothes
or a warm meal to eat
I won't ask you for blankets
or shoes for my feet
I won't ask for any of those things,
I ask you for something
that means much more to me...
A fine watch on your wrist
'tis gold indeed,
but even that's
not quite what I need
I'll ask you once,
and hope you're kind...
"Please sir,
can you give me a smile?"
