Byłam różą [English translation]

Once upon a time I was a rose for your heart

Once upon a time I was your rose

Today I'm a thorn

When you look at me

I'm not a woman anymore

God gives

God takes away

Once upon a time I was a rose

But I'm not anymore

From time to time it seems as if I could hear you

Walking through my threshold

My dear

From time to time, although I know I don't have the right

Because I'm not yours anymore

And the nest on my roof is alive again

Storks came back home

And I was dreaming that just like them

You'll come back too, my dear

God gives

God takes away

Once upon a time I was a rose

But I'm not anymore

From time to time it seems as if I could hear you

Walking through my threshold

My dear

From time to time, although I know I don't have the right

Because I'm not yours anymore
