Without a Song
Embracing the Melody of Life: Without a Song by Nana Mouskouri
Lyrics
Without a song the day would never end
Without a song, the day lacks fulfillment and seems endless.
Without a song the road would never bend
Without a song, life's path remains unbending and rigid.
When things go wrong a man ain't got a friend
In difficult times, a person feels lonely without the solace of a song.
Without a song
Emphasizes the importance of having a song in one's life.
That field of corn would never see a plow
A metaphorical field of corn symbolizing potential and productivity would remain unused without a song.
That field of corn would be deserted now
Without a song, opportunities and potential may be abandoned and unfulfilled.
A man is born but he's no good no how
Regardless of birth, a person may lack value or purpose without a song.
Without a song
Reiterates the significance of having a song in one's life.
I got my trouble and woe but, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll
Despite facing troubles, the reference to the Jordan rolling suggests that challenges will pass.
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul
The assurance that as long as there is a song, there is strength and resilience in the soul.
I'll never know what makes the rain to fall
Expressing uncertainty about the mysteries of life, like the reasons behind rainfall.
I'll never know what makes that grass so tall
Similar to the previous line, pondering the mysteries of nature, like the growth of grass.
I only know there ain't no love at all
Suggests a lack of love or fulfillment in life without the presence of a song.
Without a song
Reiterates the idea that life lacks something essential without a song.
I've-a got my trouble and woe and, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll
Despite troubles, there is confidence that challenges will pass with the roll of the Jordan.
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul
Emphasizes the enduring strength derived from having a song in one's soul.
I'll-a never know what makes that rain to fall
Reiteration of the uncertainty about the reasons behind rainfall.
I'll never know what makes the grass so tall
Similar to the previous line, expressing uncertainty about the growth of grass.
I only know there ain't no love at all
Reiterates the theme that life lacks love and fulfillment without a song.
Without a song
Final emphasis on the essential role of a song in life.
