by Tadeusz Micinski (1873 - 1918)

Na pustej trzcinie
Language: Polish (Polski) 
Na pustej trzcinie 
rozpiąłem jej włos
nad śniącą rzeką schyliły się drzewa
wiatr cicho płacze - ptak mogilny śpiewa,
to los mój - los1!
Głębiny tajne pruć
milczenie głuche mącić
jako stracona lódź
od brzegu się odtrącić
mieć gwiazdy, gwiazdy rzucić
i tylko piosnkę nucić
to los mój - los!
