Piosenka o mojej Warszawie [English translation]

Like the smile of the beloved girl

Like the gust of spring waking up

Like the tweet of the swallows in the morning

The unknown youthful feelings

Like the dew shining on the grass

The call of love that is being born

The sound of this song makes the heart so happy

The song about my Warsaw

Walking carefree,

I would like to find the trace of my strolls

To walk Marszałkowska Street aimlessly

To look at the Vistula river at the bridge

To go to the Alleys by the tram 9

To get interwoven with the crowd at Nowy Świat1

And to see you laughing to me Warsaw

Like in the old years of my youth

I know that today you are not like this

That you have already gone through bloody days

That the despair and pain ovewhelm you

That I must cry over you

But I will bring you back as you live in the memory

By the sacrifice of my blood

And believe me, Warsaw, beside the song and tears

I'm ready to sacrifice my life for you

1. Nowy Świat - a street in Warsaw ("Nowy Świat" means "new world")
