An unfinished story


Do you remember my beloved

grandmother,

When did you take me on your knees?

Twilight was looking through the glass,

the clock ticked out the hours for us.

Our rocking chair was standing in the corner

and he creaked softly with every move you made.

You brushed your gray hair with your hand

and you started, what you wanted to say,

about how people once loved each other,

how my parents met, also about your mother.

About what is good and bad in human activities.

I remember, you always encouraged me to be a good person.

But, you did not finish this story,

You suddenly interrupted your life, full of anguish.

And today, when the twilight peeks through the glass,

and the clock measures the hours,

I'm sitting alone in a rocking chair.



Autumn


Autumn, autumn, walks around the world,

it raises its hand to the sun,

to let it stay a little longer.

Will it succeed?


Autumn, autumn goes around the world,

it is painting the picture behind it

full of yellows and greens,

sometimes of gold.


Autumn, autumn goes around the world,

the wind is swaying the trees.

A little badger in a warmer den

it's going to sleep.


Autumn, autumn goes around the world,

it holds a basket full of gifts:

ruddy apples and pears.

Oh, we would eat and eat.


Devil court in Piotrkow


Once in court in Piotrków

the trial took place against a widow.

Although she was right on her side, cruel judges issued a sentence so bad.

Then she shouted in despair:

Devils just sentence they would spend!

Late in the evening, when the tribune was already empty,

other characters were in strange uniforms ..

They had cut-shaped hats on their heads,

  long, black robes to the ground,

stockings on their legs, but what was strange ...



Tails stuck out from under their clothes.

Although they sat at the table solemnly,

the devils were - of course.

They were talking all night,

until they admitted the widow was right.

They left a document after the hour,

signed with a devil's claw.

And it was a beautiful, starry night,

when devils came to help. It's right!
