How to use SSH to forward secure connection to insecure connection?

Hi all,
I have written a TCP server program on Linux that listens to
insecure connection from client and transfer bi-directional data
insecurely. The client application is developed by the third party,
now it has changed to establish secure connection to my server using
SSH, but my server does not support. I wonder whether there is a
simply way to accept it without changing my program, that is, running
another agent program on the Linux that can accept SSH connection from
the client and transfer data securely with the client, but can
communicate with my server using ordinary socket connection. I try to
use ssh command provided by OpenSSH, but it can only forward insecure
connection to secure one, can not forward in the reverse way. Can
anybody met with the same occasion before and can give me your
solution ?
Please note, as the client is developed and the machine is
maintained by the third party, and has already support SSH, I can not
ask them to install another ssh client for their OS ( they must
remodify their program back to using insecure connection) .
Any clue from you are appreciated. Thanks.
