From:
My Heart by Ernő Szép
I'd like to give my heart away as a present
It always only brings me sadness anyway
I would like to sew it to a cripple's crutch
Under his arm it would be a soft pillow
They could cut my heart in two, to make
Red shoes for a little beggar girl
Or I'd give it to her grieving mother
It may be meat enough for one dinner
