translation of kafenes

I have a kafeneio


at the edge of the port

it was built with the tears

of those who are left behind

and wait.

I have a kafeneio

that always hears about the same things,

shipping off and journeys,

from those who are left behind

and wait.

I have a kafeneio,

an old wreck,

Ah, if only it could be a ship

for those who are left behind

and wait.
