Του χαρίζανε γάιδαρο και τον κοίταγε στα δόντια → Don't look a gift horse in the mouth
You are looking a gift horse in the mouth when you receive a gift and then you question the value of that gift. Example: "This shirt you gave me is not my favorite brand." Reply: "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth! That was the best they had."

Beggars can't be choosers.
Prov. If someone gives you something you asked for, you should not complain about what you get. I asked Joe to lend me his bicycle, and he sent me this old, rusty one. But beggars can't be choosers. Jill: Let me wear your green dress; I don't like the blue one you lent me. Jane: Beggars can't be choosers.
Beggars can't be choosers - Idioms - by the Free Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.
The stars, escaping,
Evaporate in acrid mists
[...]Night blows through me.
I am clear with its bitterness.
I tinkle along brick canyons
Like a crystal leaf
