Jan Jakub Należyty - Modlitwa

And if indeed, my God,
In your image you created me,
Why can't you change me,
Why am I evil?
Why, loving, do I kill
And with free will I'm not well,
And how is the heart to a stick:
What will hurt me more today?
And how is the heart to a stick:
What will hurt me more today?

To birds you gave the sky,
To love freedom till the end.
To the dog you gave a dog's heart
And he is as faithful as a dog.
And to me, you gave a crippled heart,
For I lose friendships and face,
And with that, you named me human:
Just human, or more?
And with that, you named me human:
Just human, or more?

Thank you for your forgetfulness
Of everything that is evil in me,
For every question of mine
And for understanding me.
And for that, I thank you, that I love
With love as green as the forest,
For life is a skittish deer,
Patient time is the hunter...
For life is a skittish deer,
Patient time is the hunter...

Thank you that I mean so much
And almost mean nothing,
I - the actor of your destinies,
The spectator of your theater.
I - a drop of rain in the ocean,
I - lightning for storms,
Though I am, I have long been gone,
When I die, create me anew...
Though I am, I have long been gone,
When I die, create me anew...
