Pamięć [English translation]

Midnight, sleep is breaking in its bowing

Memory is omnipotent

When it mounts the throne

On its face lover-time has left its mark

It's searching for the guilty in the books of years

Memory, how cruelly it doesn't lie

When it puts before us

That which causes us pain

When insomnia extends beyond the nights and days

It sends envoys into the bitter past

Here I am, the first tear

That swims into the depths and hurts

Here I am, the unconscious gesture

The bad dream and scraps of will

Interrupt my nights of nightmares

If memory is a sentence

Why did it enter our house

If it wanders every night on the paths of sadness and evil

What will it find here but a few dates

Here the table is shuddering from talks

Friends' gentle laughter

But behold fear, I run through darkness and blizzard

Betrayed, she's angry and alone

Memory, still shields and wounds

Always loyal like a stone

Always sensitive like fog

A consonant dance, memory and wind circulate at dawn

Look behind you, it's time to live
