Dawn Prayer --- Translation

Modlitwa o wschodzie slonca Kazdy Twój wyrok przyjme twardy Przed moca Twoja sie ukorze Ale chron mnie, Panie, od pogardy Od nienawisci strzez mnie, Boze Wszak Tys jest niezmierzone dobro Którego nie wyraza slowa Wiec mnie od nienawisci obron I od pogardy mnie zachowaj Co postanowisz, niech sie zisci Niechaj sie wola Twoja stanie Ale zbaw mnie od nienawisci Ocal mnie od pogardy Panie... --Jacek Kaczmarski Dawn Prayer To Your harshest judgments I resign myself I am humbled by Your power But protect me Lord from hatred And shield me from contempt Because You are boundless providence The ineffable One So give me refuge from hatred And give me sanctuary from contempt May Your wishes be carried out Let Your will be done But shield me from hatred Deliver me from contempt, my Lord . --translated by Christopher Johnston
