Paroles et traduction Maryla Rodowicz - Polska Madonna

Polska Madonna

Madonno, Polska Madonno
Panno z dzieckiem mów
Jak ty sobie radzisz
Noc¹ wœród z³ych snów?
Madonno, Polska Madonno
Sk¹d masz pieni¹dze na czynsz
Czy ciê nie przera¿a
Paj¹k albo mysz?
Damy ci kwiatek na Œwiêto Kobiet
Czapkê na bakier i Polski obie
Damy ci wódki i bilet do kina
Kace i smutki i dwóje na szynach
Damy przyrzeczeñ starych tysi¹ce
I niedorzecznie ma³e pieni¹dze
Damy ci be³kot i stracha w polu
A dla ma³ego miejsce w przedszkolu
Madonno, Polska Madonno
Panno z dzieckiem mów
Jak ty sobie radzisz
Noc¹ wœród z³ych snów
Madonno, Polska Madonno
Pusto w ³ӿku twym
Jaki w twojej g³owie
Œpiewaæ musi rym
Damy ci kwiatek na Œwiêto Kobiet...
Byle do nocy, byle do jutra
T³ucze siê w tobie litania smutna
Sen ciê otuli jak ³aska boska
Polska Madonno, Madonno Polska
Sen ci daruje szminkê francusk¹
Piersi okryje szkar³atn¹ bluzk¹
Sen ci daruje nadziejê p³onn¹
Polska Madonno, Polska Madonno

Polish Madonna

O Madonna, Polish Madonna
Virgin with a Child, speak
How do you cope
Amidst nightmares?
O Madonna, Polish Madonna
Where do you get your rent money?
Doesn't a spider or a mouse
Terrify you?
We'll give you a flower for Women's Day
A tilted cap and a Polish nose
We'll give you vodka and a movie ticket
Hangovers and sadness and two men on the tracks
We'll give you a thousand old promises
And ridiculous amounts of money
We'll give you stammerings and fear in the field
And a kindergarten spot for your little one
O Madonna, Polish Madonna
Virgin with a Child, speak
How do you cope
Amidst nightmares?
O Madonna, Polish Madonna
Your cheeks are hollow
In your mind, what kind of
Rhyme must it sing
We'll give you a flower for Women's Day...
Just until nightfall, just until tomorrow
A litany of sorrow spins within you
Sleep will embrace you like God's grace
Polish Madonna, Madonna of Poland
Sleep will grant you French lipstick
Cover your breasts with a crimson blouse
Sleep will grant you an empty hope
Polish Madonna, Madonna of Poland
