by Teofil Lenartowicz (1822 - 1893)

Łzy
Language: Polish (Polski) 
Gdzie ta chatka mchem obrosła,
Co mnie wychowała?
Gdzie jabłonka ta wyniosła,
Co w ogrodzie stała?
 
Gdzie to źródło żywej wody,
Spod ziemi bijące?
Gdzie te myśli dziewki młodej
Jak kwiatki na łące?
 
Chata — w gruzy obalona,
Źródła — bić przestały,
Jabłoń — w próchno zamieniona:
Jedne łzy zostały.
