The shortcut for that is Ctrl+Alt+G (or Ctrl+Alt+G+G, if you want the term pair to be displayed in a separate "companion" window). However, it's supposed to be used on the source text, and you said you don't have the source text in digital form. Ctrl+Alt+G+G seems to work on target terms, though. Just experiment with either shortcut and see if they work for you.
If you are using Word 2007 or newer, Ctrl+Alt+G displays a drop-down menu under the Add-ins tab.
One benefit of such a limited use of Wordfast Classic is you won't need a license: there are no restrictions whatsoever related to the use of glossaries.
