twój profil jak cień
rozpłynął się w mroku.
Zmierzch, więc chyba już czas
twój uśmiech mi zgasł
i smutno jest wokół...
Na zmierzch otworzę cichutko drzwi
i nie zobaczysz, jak ciężko mi,
jak bardzo ciężko mi iść,
gdy zmierzch twą zakrył mi twarz
i nie wiem czy masz
w oczach żal
czy może zmierzch?
Jest między nami wiele ciszy
i bardzo mało słów.
Słów więcej boję się usłyszeć
powiedzieć: „Mów ...
Nie wiem, co się za ciszą kryje
nie wiem czy wiedzieć chcesz.
Więc może lepiej niech okryje
słowa i ciszę zmierzch.
Zmierzch wszedł cicho przez sień
twój profil jak cień
rozpłynął się w mroku.
Zmierzch, więc chyba już czas
twój uśmiech mi zgasł
i smutno jest wokół ...
Na zmierzch otworzę cichutko drzwi
i nie zobaczysz, jak ciężko mi,
jak bardzo ciężko mi iść,
gdy zmierzch twą zakrył mi twarz
i nie wiem, czy masz
w oczach żal
czy może zmierzch?

Edyta BartosiewiczEdyta Bartosiewicz (born January 11, 1965 in Warsaw) is a Polish rock singer, composer, and songwriter. In Poland, she's known for her highly reflective and unusual lyrics. Sixteen of her singles reached the top of Polish Radio charts. Over the course of her musical career, she has received five Fryderyk Awards - the most important recognition in the Polish music industry. For me the sound of some of these Polish singers and their music is close to the French and Italian singers. In musicality the Poles in my opinion are Latin (Romanesque) oriented. Ofcourse there will be Anglo-Saxon (British/American/Canadian/Australian), German/Austrian, Bohemian (Czech), Slovak, Ukrainian, Russian, Baltic, Belarussian, Jewish (Ashkenazi Klezmer and Jewish classical composers and Polish Jewish Polish language musicians), Gypsy (Sinti- and Roma), Afro American (in my opinion Black American jazz had a great influence on Polish jazz music, and Poles loved Blues, Rhythem 'n Blues, Soul, Disco music and Hip Hop music too and Jamaican Reggea and Ska music). Although the Poles are Western Slavic people and thus slavic people, due to their Roman-Catholic (Vatican, Italy and Italian Renaissance base, the Polisn architectural and painters influence in Poland) and German (Prussian) and Austrian influences and minor Dutch and Scandinavian influences they are slightly less Slavic than the deeply Eastern Slav Russians who were further away from Western and European continental (Non-Slavic) influences. Ofcouse the Russians have the Greek Bysantine Orthodox christian influence, but they shaped their own Orthodoxy, and were less dependent on Constantinobel (Istanbul) than Poland from Rome. Polish language, culture, music and literature had the influence of Polish imigrants to England, France (Paris) and the USA (people like Frédéric Chopin, Joseph Conrad, Adam Zamoyski, Pat Benatar who was born Patricia Andrzejewski, Nina Kaczorowski, Joanna Krupa, Emily Ratajkowski and others.) While Polish Pop music today sounds like a Polish version of Western pop music from West-Europe and the USA, I do believe in time there will be a authentic Polish pop music, like there always was typical Polish rural peoples music, Polish Folk Music and Polish classical music.
