Polish National Anthem Sheet Music with Lyrics: If you find any mistakes please comment below.
During 1789 French Revolution, under Jan Henryk Dąbrowski's command in northern Italy, Poland hoping that making allies would help defend Poland, marched to a song composed for them by Józef Rufin Wybicki, now the Polish National Anthem! Dąbrowski Mazurka, "Jeszcze Polska nie zginęła" which translates to "Poland is not yet lost" or "Poland has not yet perished", by Józef Rufin Wybicki (1797), was declared Poland's official "State Hymn" or Anthem in 1926, after Józef Klemens Piłsudski (1867-1935) took control of the country. The term "state hymn" has the same meaning as "national anthem" in Poland.
- Poland is not yet lost, while we live. What foreign force has taken from us, We shall take back with the sword.
- Like Czarniecki to Poznan, after Swedish annexation, We will come back across the sea to save our motherland.
- Father, in tears, says to his Basia: "Just listen, It seems that our people are beating the drums."
After World War II, Dąbrowski's Mazurka continued to serve as the official (State Hymn) anthem of Poland, and was meaningful for a generally disliked socialist government. However, the Solidarity Movement in 1980 chose another song for its "unofficial" hymn: Żeby Polska była Polską or "Let Poland be Poland", by Jan Pietrzak (1976). It is not a call to fight, but a recollection on past wars fought by generations.
