Śliczny Chłopiec
Language: Polish (Polski)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Wzniosły, smukły i młody,
O! nielada urody.
Śliczny chłopiec, czego chcieć?
Czarny wąsik, biała płeć!
Ledwie mrugnie oczyma,
Radość całą mnie ima.
Śliczny chłopiec, czego chcieć?
Czarny wąsik, biała płeć!
Gdy pląsamy we dwoje,
Patrzą na nas ócz roje.
Śliczny chłopiec, czego chcieć?
Czarny wąsik, biała płeć!
Niech się spóźni godzinę,
To mi tęskno, aż ginę.
Śliczny chłopiec, czego chcieć?
Czarny wąsik, biała płeć!
Każde słówko co powie
Lgnie mi w sercu i w głowie.
Śliczny chłopiec, czego chcieć?
Czarny wąsik, biała płeć!
On powiedział mi przecie,
Żem mu wszystkiem na świecie!
Śliczny chłopiec, czego chcieć?
Czarny wąsik, biała płeć!

Gorgeous young man
Language: English  after the Polish (Polski)
Tall, slender and young,
Oh! so handsome.
Gorgeous young man, what else could I want?
Black moustache, white complexion!
Twinkling in rapture, my eyes stare,
Joy overwhelms me.
Gorgeous young man, what else could I want?
Black moustache, white complexion!
When we dance together,
Swarms of eyes fix upon us.
Gorgeous young man, what else could I want?
Black moustache, white complexion!
If he were delayed by an hour,
I’d miss him so much, I might perish.
Gorgeous young man, what else could I want?
Black moustache, white complexion!
Every word he speaks
Lodges itself in my heart and my mind.
Gorgeous young man, what else could I want?
Black moustache, white complexion!
He confessed to me, after all,
That I’m everything in the world to him!
Gorgeous young man, what else could I want?
Black moustache, white complexion!
