Mieczysław Fogg - Kiedy będziesz zakochany

So often they ask: why?
Songs are always about
The paradise, May, the tears and lilac,
About the nightingale, the longing and trees?
And you are surprised by rhymes maudliness,
Someone is always sad in them.
You will agree that songs are true,
When this one special girl will abandon you.

When there will come a moment,
That you will miss a girl
And you will understand you love her so much.
When at this moment, my friend,
The tears will start to flow by themselvs,
Involuntarily, the sad rhyme will be: sobs.

The memory of old, bright moments
Like a spring will come back to you
And they will be the only content
Of your dreams, filled by longing.
And, when at the moment you will see at the park,
The lilacs known from the first spring,
You will get the sad rhym: tears.
