by Adam Asnyk (1838 - 1897)

Szumi w gaju brzezina
Language: Polish (Polski) 
Our translations:  CAT
Szumiwgaja brzezina,
Bo inaczej nie może,
Wiatr gałązki jej zgina
Musi szumieć nieboże.

Wzdycha w gaju dziewczyna
Mimowoli łzy cieką
Bo miłego wspomina
Co jest od niej daleko.

Gdy nadejdzie jaż zima
Brzoza liści pozbędzie
Wszytkie wichry wytrzy ma
I już szumieć nie będzie.

Gdy nadejdzie juz zima.
Dziewczę wspomni miłego
I smutnemi oczyma
Zacznie szukać drugiego.
