Music - Jacek Łągwa

Through the years of triumph and warfare
Through the days you’ve been low and high
We’ve been victors and vanquished,
Conquerors and defenders;
Fell to knees but stayed alive

Father mine always told we should love you
Just because you are our motherland
As I wondered he said – don’t ask silly questions,
When you grow up you’ll understand…

Where you going, Poland?
Where you going, country?
To infernal fire or to heavens higher?
What do you aspire
In your joy and sorrow?
Will you reign in secula seculorum?

Fall again will meet us in golden
And another year will soon pass you by
Why your children are flying
Over unfriendly ocean,
Leaving homes and hearts behind?

Mother Mary, please keep us together
Let the sun and rainbow cherish our lands
Let the stars twinkle brightly
And the moon shine forever
There’s no danger in Mother’s hands

Where you going, Poland?
Where you going, country?
To infernal fire or to heavens higher?
What do you aspire
In your joy and sorrow?
Will you reign in secula seculorum?
