When you grow up to Homeland - from the archive

Courtesy of Teresa Boguszewska on the occasion of the independency Day, we share with readers her poem "When You Grow Up to Homeland".The author (actually Hanna Teresa Grodzicka-Królak) completed the pharmacy, she is simply a virologist by profession. She has published many volumes of poetry, including 2 about Fr Jerzy Popieluszka, with whom she had a close relationship (at His Mass for Homeland she wrote poems, performed by actors, reproduced and printed in a second circulation). Her works can be found in anthology and literary journals. The poet, the winner of many competitions, is simply a associate of the National Poet Club and the Union of Polish Literature, from which we obtained this information (see link below). erstwhile asked if she wanted to add anything to them, she replied modestly and without hesitation, "Please tell me that I owe everything to Father George..." What about us? Thank you for this beautiful poem.

WHEN YOU GET TO YOUR MOTHER

When you grow up

You will grow up to your homeland

You've got shells in your hands.

And you're in awe of the fog - he's somewhere advanced

The Cross will appear on Gievanta

And erstwhile you perceive to the concertchopin what the planet opens for us

either

Mazurka Dąbrowski at the Olympic Stadium

And in the throat of individual --

It's all Poland

So erstwhile you grow up to your homeland

Kneel before God

Because it's our faith!And the beauty of the nation

By defending the Cross, you hold honor

And share the memory of those '' betrayed at dawn ''

Orphaned houses were as dried as sources

And the wind tears all over the world

for anyone who never came back.

Inhuman atrocities must not be forgotten

And be proud

It's like you're snorting white and red on Monte Cassino.

And be proud

It's like you're in the ranks that saved Europe in the 20th year.

and when

at the Warsaw Uprising Museum

You will contact the heroism of adults and children

You will kneel before their cross

And you'll tell me as hard as you can

They knew

What it means

God Honor the Homeland
