The Beggar” – Ballad Version (English)
Verse 1
It was just a few days before Christmas,
the streets were shining, bright and clear.
People rushed by, bags in their hands,
but somewhere, he sat quietly near.
His coat was worn and tattered,
his shoes were full of holes.
No one noticed him, only the wind,
and a quiet voice whispered to my soul.
Chorus
Help where you can,
even when the world hurries past.
A heart that gives is never wasted,
it comes back at the right time, at last.
Help where you can,
bring light into the dark.
Sometimes a small, unexpected moment
shows how big a heart can be.
Verse 2
I gave him my coat,
bought him warm shoes for the cold.
Led him to a little room,
a place to rest, a story to unfold.
He looked at me, softly,
and spoke words I’ll never forget:
“Your heart is big. I’ll watch over you.”
And suddenly I knew: this is Christmas, I met.
Chorus
Help where you can,
even when the world hurries past.
A heart that gives is never wasted,
it comes back at the right time, at last.
Help where you can,
bring light into the dark.
Sometimes a small, unexpected moment
shows how big a heart can be.
Bridge
At home, we sat together,
tears in our eyes, hearts open wide.
No gifts to show that evening,
but warmth and love – the true Christmas guide.
