Marek Grechuta - Niepewność

When my eyes can't see you, I don't sigh or cry,
I do not lose my senses, when I see you:
However, when I haven't seen you for long,
something's missing and I must see someone;
And while longing, I ask myself
Is this friendship? Or is this love?

When you disappear from sight, not even once
Can I renew your image in my mind;
Yet, sometimes, despite my wishes, I feel
That it is always near the surface.
And, again, I repeat to myself the question:
Is this friendship? or is this love?

I've suffered at times but did not think at all
to come before you to pour out my sorrows;
Walking aimlessly, not minding the road,
I do not understand myself how to cross your threshold
And upon entering, I ask myself:
What has led me here? friendship or love?

For your health, I would not spare my life,
For your mirth, I would descend to hell,
Even though my heart is devoid of bold desire.
I would be your health and peace.
And again I ask myself:
Is this friendship or is ithislove?

When you put your hand in mine,
My beloved, a certain calm envelops me,
It appears that I'll end my life in a light dream
But a quicker heartbeat wakes me up,
Which insistently asks me the question:
Is this friendship? or is this love?

When I was composing this song for you,
The poetic spirit did not direct my lips;
Full of wonder, I haven't noticed myself,
Where I took the thoughts, how I came upon the rhymes;
And at the end, I wrote this question:
What inspired me? friendship or love?
