The Rider (Polish version of “Jeździec”) (исполнитель: Illuminandi)
Music: J. Trębacz & Illuminandi Lyrics: J. Liebert – 1930 In fear I [bad word] from you, I was trying to cheat you, deceive you; But each day my knees so stubborn Left their prints upon the sky. You caught me, oh heavenly Rider, You trampled and you stood on me. I fell down, smitten by grace, Like the smoke when the wind bends it. I lack words to rise from underneath you And my speech is getting heavier and heavier. Does one have to lose all the words, To regain the words like a soul? So one must go beyond oneself, And oneself to your words [bad word] If that’s needed, trample to the bottom; I am nothing more than your warrior. I know this, and no more revelations Neither eyes nor my ears are demanding; Having once made a choice for ever, I must choose anew every moment.
