Pieśń o fali
Language: Polish (Polski)
Chciałabym srebrną być falą, co burt twej łodzi całuje. Na harflie rozwianych grzyw tęskne śpiewałabym pieśni. A gdyby gniewne wichry twą łódź rozbiły oskałę, na mej piersi białej, ukołysałabym cię na wieczny sen, na wieczny, wieczny sen!

Le chant de la vague
Language: French (Français) after the Polish (Polski)
Je voudrais être la vague qui suit ta barque légère. Mes cheveux flottants seraient la harpe, j'y jouerais mon chant d'amour. Er si un sombre orage bri sait ta blanche nacelle sur mon sein de neige, tu rêverais doucement les songes bleus, les songes de l'infini!
