Lyrics of this version:
My Pierwsza Brygada,
Strzelecka gromada,
Na stos rzuciliśmy
Nasz życia los,
Na stos, na stos!
Legiony to żołnierska nuta,
Legiony to ofiarny stos,
Legiony to żołnierska buta,
Legiony to straceńców los,
My Pierwsza Brygada,
Strzelecka gromada,
Na stos rzuciliśmy
Nasz życia los,
Na stos, na stos!
O, ile mąk, ile cierpienia?
O, ile krwi, wylanych łez?
Pomimo to nie ma zwątpienia,
Dodawał sił wędrówki kres.
My Pierwsza Brygada,
Strzelecka gromada,
Na stos rzuciliśmy
Nasz życia los,
Na stos, na stos!
English:
We the First Brigade,
a band of riflemen,
We've thrown on the pyre
Our life's fate
on the pyre, on the pyre!
The Legions are a soldiers' note,
The Legions are a sacrifice pyre,
The Legions are a soldier pride,
The Legions are a soldier fate,
We the First Brigade,
a band of riflemen,
We've thrown on the pyre
Our life's fate
on the pyre, on the pyre!
How much suffering and toil?
How much blood and tears have flowed?
despite it all there's no doubt
end of the journey gave us strength,
We the First Brigade,
a band of riflemen,
We've thrown on the pyre
Our life's fate
on the pyre, on the pyre!
