Ogrzej mnie [English translation]

Day or night, whether it's sweltering or freezing

There's a similar story unchangingly resounding in this song

Thirty six and six will suffice for my body

My soul needs a lot more

My body just needs to drink something and to eat something

To sleep a little on the side or on the back

And our economic miracle ensures me this

But my soul asks me like this everyday:

Warm me up

Little poem full of marvel

Partner of my insomnia

Warm, warm me up!

Enkindle me

Unfinished exchange of sentences

Marvellous quarrel, stopped mid-way

Enkindle, enkindle me

Oh, life, enkindle, warm up my soul else it'll die

To one-hundred, to two-hundred, to one-million

Listen in to my soul's insistent plea:

I want a fever! Give me a fever!

Enkindle me

Melpomene, my pale cousin

With one well-acted scene

Enkindle, enkindle me!

Warm me up

Oh world woven out of stupid dreams

Accordion in a night bar

Warm, warm me up!

And the world responds to this: "This is a normal state for a soul

This does not have to be a feverish state

We have to give you a check-up, undertake a plan

To have these foolish problems once and for all off our backs!"

They contrive, test, whether it's a dog or demon

But my soul still lacks joy

As usual it sends out a stubborn SOS

As usual is pleas like this everyday:

Warm me up

Fierce disagreement on this world

That I separated from at such a young age

Return, warm me up!

Enkindle me

Moment of folly and joy

My identity, immutability

Find - enkindle me!

My world, enkindle my soul all the way

My world, transform my soul into a fragment of the sun

May it shine in the dark, may it enlighten rotten days

I want a fever! Give me a fever!

Enkindle me

Sunny, crooked line

Van Gogh's golden perspective

Enkindle, enkindle me!

Enkindle me

Love that I still don't know

With rain from spring's lilly-like lilacs

Come and warm me up!
