Lyrics
Ilu nas w bólu — tylu w nadziei
Ilu nas płacze — tylu się śmieje
Ilu nas więdnie — tylu rozkwita
Ilu się żegna — tylu się wita
Ilu nas w ciszy — tylu w kolędzie
Ilu nas żyje — tylu nie będzie
Ilu nas mężnych — tylu się trwoży
Ilu się pyszni — tylu się korzy
Ilu się plami — tylu oczyszcza
Ilu się tworzy — tylu wyniszcza
Ilu nas w ciszy — tylu w kolędzie
Ilu nas żyje — tylu nie będzie
Ilu nas jadło — tylu zgłodniało
Ilu nas padło — tylu powstało
Ilu nas śniło — tylu zbudzonych
Ilu się wzbiło — tylu strąconych
Ilu nas w ciszy — tylu w kolędzie
Ilu nas żyje — tylu nie będzie
Ilu nas w cnocie — tylu w podłości
Ilu nas w blasku — tylu w ciemności
Ilu w przepychu — tylu w łachmanach
I wszyscy przyszli powitać Pana
Każdy był kiedyś dzieckiem w kołysce
Zmiłuj się nad nami — Jezu Chryste…
Ilu nas w ciszy — tylu w kolędzie
Ilu nas żyje — tylu nie będzie
Lyrics translation
How many of us in pain — so many in hope
How many of us cry — how many laugh
How many wither — how many flourish
How many say goodbye — how many say hello
How many of us in silence — so many in a carol
How many of us live — there won't be
How many of us brave — how many fear
How many are proud — so many are proud
How many stains — how many cleanse
How many are created — how many are destroyed
How many of us in silence — so many in a carol
How many of us live — there won't be
How many of us ate — how many were hungry
How many of us died-how many were born
How many have we dreamed — so many awoken
How many have soared — how many have fallen
How many of us in silence — so many in a carol
How many of us live — there won't be
How many of us in virtue — how many in despondency
How many of us in the glare — how many in the dark
How many in splendour — how many in rags
And they all came to greet the Lord
Everyone was once a baby in a cradle
Have mercy on us-Jesus Christ…
How many of us in silence — so many in a carol
How many of us live — there won't be
