"Papusza"- Joanna Kos-Krauze, Krzysztof Krauze (2013)

...the water does not look behind It flees, runs farther away Where eyes will not see her, the water wanders...

Papusza - Bronisława Wajs

I lived with you, I grieved, and many a tear I shed. In truth, I never did a noble soul defy. Now it is time for me to go and join the dead. Seems like it’s joy I leave on earth – so sad am I.

...

But I beseech you – there is hope while there is breath. Do lead the nation with a wisdom’s torch held high, And one by one, if needed be, go straight to death, As God-hurled stones that densely over ramparts fly.

...

But after me remains, howe’er, the fateful force That, of no use in life, adorned my forehead tall; But it will press you when I die, without remorse, So that, bread-eaters, you become sheer angels all.

"Testament mój"- Juliusz Słowacki ( "My testament"- Juliusz Słowacki translated by Jarek Zawadzki)
