Warsaw

The Commonwealth is under attack
From all sides, we can't fight back
Empires make thrills out of kills
But nothing's coming from the mills
Our existence is under threat
From Kyiv to Katowice
An old man cries in the jester's hall
We have trust Poland will not fall

Surrounded by enemies
Constant attacks for centuries
We were doomed to fail but here we are
I guess it's nice that we got this far
Cartographers shot by demagogues
Is the land you stole still not enough?
Rally the troops to Warsaw
For the Rzeczpospolita

The Commonwealth is attacked again
This time they want it to end
Empires make thrills out of kills
But now they've closed down all the mills
Our existence will meet its end
From Warszawa to Klaipėda
An old man dies as a prisoner of war
In the final days Poland was lost

Surrounded by enemies
Constant attacks for centuries
We were doomed to fail but here we are
I guess it's nice that we got this far
Cartographers shot by demagogues
Is the land you stole still not enough?
Rally the troops to Warsaw
For the Rzeczpospolita

The Second Commonwealth is proclaimed
A hundred years of dying pain
The jewel in the crown of Europe
The golden age is starting up
Poland is brought back again
From Lviv to Gdynia
The old man stands above them all
Proudly singing "Poland Is Not Lost"

Surrounded by enemies
Constant attacks for centuries
We were doomed to fail but here we are
I guess it's nice that we got this far
Cartographers shot by demagogues
Is the land you stole still not enough?
Rally the troops to Warsaw
For the Rzeczpospolita

But the golden age was not for long
As partitions again would call
Tensions are rising in Europe
It's been so strange since the Anschluss
Poland is under threat again
In Gdańsk and Gdynia
The Germans say they want it all
Goodbye, remember my soul

Surrounded by enemies
Constant attacks for centuries
We were doomed to fail but here we are
I guess it's nice that we got this far
Cartographers shot by demagogues
Is the land you stole still not enough?
Rally the troops to Warsaw
For the Rzeczpospolita

At last the deed is finally done
After six years of awful depression
But this time it is not the same
The Russians control us again
The communists who we despise
Have took control of all our lives
We want to fight the east as west
But the Iron Curtain's drawn again

Surrounded by enemies
Constant attacks for centuries
We were doomed to fail but here we are
I guess it's nice that we got this far
Cartographers shot by demagogues
Is the land you stole still not enough?
Rally the troops to Warsaw
For the Rzeczpospolita

Gaining freedom we always longed for
Finally came in 1991
One day we will reclaim our fame
The Third Commonwealth shall be its name
As communism came and died
We celebrate without goodbyes
Those west of us finally give us love
And nations do not fall anymore
