(Konstanty Ildefons Gałczynski)
We
have walked down so many roads
On
so many paths we struggled
So
many rains, so many snows,
Watched
snowflakes float over the lampposts
All
the departures and all the letters
Heartbreaking
hours in cities foreign
Yet
we would always get up and continue
And
reach wherever it was we were going
And
in that never ending hardship
All
our plans and our worries
Breads
sliced, books read, sunrises, kisses
All
that we shared all we enjoyed
Your
eyes two candles of rarest beauty
Their
light radiating right from your heart
And
I have just one wish for tonight
I
wish to save that heart of yours
From
oblivion
A
veil hangs down your slender shoulders
Adorned
with songs of nightingales
It
runs over the hall, across the back yard
And
reaches Venus up in the sky
And
you the flight and height of clouds
Shimmering
water and adamant stone
And
I just have one wish for tonight
I
wish to save that look in your eyes
From
oblivion
