Description
It's like someone turned up the karaoke patriotism to full volume and added a mug of self-irony to it. Here you have mountains and the sea, beer instead of milk, and pride mixed with a good dose of recklessness. It all sounds like a toast at a national holiday - loud, cheerful, and a bit too confident in its coolness. But that's the beauty of it: a country where every other person is a hero, and a smile is replaced by a song about how "we don't just shake hands." A joyful, feisty ode to loving yourself loudly and with an accent.
Lyrics and translation
Original
The heart of Europe is a pretty country
And better sit down and listen to me
We have the mountains and access to the sea
We got our language, so don't say "us", oui oui
We drink only milk, I'm joking, only beer
Every day making party, like new day is new year
You know Chopin, Lewandowski, oh man
For us, they're superheroes, so listen up again
Polska górą, zaśpiewam starym rurą
Zaśpiewam to co chcę i tak nikt nie rozumie mnie
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Let's evеrybody stand, and sing with me: "Poland!"
We are Polish pеople, we never too smile
Come to Polish village and say: "You're right"
We know we are pretty, please stop crush on us
We will break your heart as easy as the glass
In our Warsaw city, we live as the kings
We can reach the moon and don't need any wings
Don't play with us, we are strong, smart, and wild
Poland is the best, it knows every child
Polska górą, zaśpiewam starym rurą
Zaśpiewam to co chcę i tak nikt nie rozumie mnie
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Let's everybody stand, and sing with me: "Poland!"
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland
Let's everybody stand, and sing with me: "Poland!"
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Po-Po-Po, Po-Po-Poland, we shake not only hand
Let's everybody stand, and sing with me: "Poland!"
