O gdybym w niedoli tej
Language: Polish (Polski) 
O, gdybym w niedoli tej, 
o, gdybym w niedoli tej
mógł choć zapomnieć 
o bólu mym, zapomnieć lżej

Rodzinę na zawsze wydarto mi,
zabrano spokoju słoneczne dni,
a w moim sercu niewiary jad
zniszczył dawnej miłości ostatni ślad

O, gdybym w niedoli tej, 
o, gdybym w niedoli tej
mógł choć zapomnieć 
o bólu mym, zapomnieć lżej
