Χάρις Αλεξίου - Μια καλημέρα

Hi again everyone. I've got several questions about this song.

Να μη ξεχάσεις να της πεις
Μια καλημέρα της ζωής
Are the genitive and the accusative cases interchangeable here? In other words does "...να πεις μια καλημέρα στη ζωή" mean the same?

Πες τη κι ας πέσει χάμω
What does it mean? Even if your words are wasted?

Κι ας είσαι μόνος μες στη γη
Since death is mentioned in the previous lines (Με τα χαράματα σαν βγεις / Από την πόρτα της ζωής) does ΜΕΣ στη γη refer to lying berried in the ground or rather to being all alone in the world?


Στο μονοπάτι σαν θα βγεις,
Μιας ανοιξιάτικης αυγής,
Να μη ξεχάσεις να της πεις
Μια καλημέρα της ζωής

Μια καλημέρα είν' αυτή
Πες τη κι ας πέσει χάμω
Πες τη κι ας πέσει χάμω
Παλάτια χτίζουν οι θεοί
κι εμείς πάνω στην άμμο
κι εμείς πάνω στην άμμο

Με τα χαράματα σαν βγεις
Από την πόρτα της ζωής
Μια καλημέρα να της πεις
Κι ας είσαι μόνος μες στη γη

Μια καλημέρα είν' αυτή ...

1. does "...να πεις μια καλημέρα στη ζωή" mean the same?

Yes!

2. Πες τη κι ας πέσει χάμω What does it mean?

3. Since death is mentioned in the previous lines
These are fully οptimistic lyrics...... No Death in there!!!!!!

Κι ας είσαι μόνος μες στη γη
Should be translated as: even if you're all alone ON earth!

I know that "μες στη γη" normally means "inside earth" = burried
but in this case probably caused of the rythm of the song it wasn't written as
it should aka "πάνω στη γη"

Once again thank you very much!!!
So I had come close to the meaning of πες το κι ας πέσει χάμω, but you really know how to explain uuuuuhhhh.... word-paintingly. )) So I got the idea.
As for the "lying buried" idea, it came from the conviction that "βγαίνω από την πόρτα της ζωής" meant to die. )) But I corrected it.
Thank you again!
