Transkrypcja to trudna sprawa.
Nie myślcie, że to zabawa.
Dokumenty do odczytania trudne,
Godziny tu spędzone nie były nudne.
Lata 80. poznaliśmy lepiej:
Wiemy, że nic nie było w sklepie,
Że pewnie generał w okularach czarnych
Był dla Polaków przywódcą marnym,
Że samolotów różnych używano bez liku,
Zwłaszcza gdy o stanie wojennym było dużo krzyku.
O konkursie na pewno w szkole opowiemy,
Może nawet taki u nas zorganizujemy.
Natalia Krystians, Paulina Zwierz, Paweł Przybył
Truly transcription is hard and demanding
Not for fun, but those who are up for something
Documents illegible on the verge of scribbles
Hours we spent were amazing, no one giggles
1980s in Poland – like the land of plenty
You got the money – but the shop was empty
Land of plenty and a general in dark-rimmed glasses
Wrong man in the position to lead Polish masses
Many different planes built the sky that wasn’t bright
Martial law was the craze when talking quietly at night
Now let the children use it – a contest at school?
A transcription contest – doesn’t it sound cool?
Natalia Krystians, Paulina Zwierz, Paweł Przybył
