Wojak
Language:
Polish
Rży mój gniady, ziemię grzebie,
Puśćie, czas już, czas!
Ciebie, ojcze, matko, ciebie,
Siostry, żegnam was!
Z wiatrem, z wiatrem! niech drżąwrogi,
Krwawy stoczym bój!
Raźni, zdrowi wrócim z drogi,
Z wiatrem, koniu mój!
Tak, tak, dobrze! na zawody!
Jeśli polec mam!
Koniu, sam, do tej zagrody,
Wolny wróć tu sam!
Słyszę jeszcze sióstr wołanie,
Zwróć się koniu, stój!
Nie chcesz? Lećże, niech się stanie!
Leć na krwawy bój!

The warrior
Language:
English
Hark! My steed stamps the dust;
He has heard the call!
Farewell father, mother, sisters;
Farewell to you all!
We'll ride into battle
as the gale roars through the trees!
We will return victorious
with our hearts aflame!
But if fate has chosen for me
Death's unfading crown,
You, my steed, without a rider
Shall return alone!
Still I hear my sisters' voices
Begging my horse to stay.
Would'st thou? No, the die is cast,
So onward into the fray!
