“Jak Jabłonowski zabiegł aż kędy pieprz rośnie, Gdzie się cukier wytapia, i gdzie w wiecznéj wiośnie Pachnące kwitną lasy; z legią Dunaju Tam wódz murzyny gromi, a wzdycha do kraju.”

Jabłonowski invaded the land where the pepper grows, Where sugar is produced and where in eternal spring Fragrant forests bloom, where with the Danube Legion Our warlord is smiting the Negroes but longing for home.

“Jak hlanisz na ich, na hety strasznyja liczby, dyk aż strach robicca padumać, szto z nami budzie, kali tak dalej pojdzie, i aż wieryć nia choczecca, szto my żywiom u cywilzawanaj Eŭropie, a nia dzie nibudź siarod murynaŭ, ci ludajedaŭ!”

When looking at them, at these terrifying numbers, it becomes scary to think what's going to happen to us if things keep going this way, and it's even hard to believe that we live in the civilized Europe, rather than somewhere among the Negroes or cannibals!

“І вось дзень радзін настае, як дзень судны. Адточаны меч пан паклаў каля ложка: Калі на мурына падобны хоць трошкі Дзіцёнак той будзе, — засне непрабудна Дзіця й парадзіха.”

And now the birth time is coming, like the Judgment Day. The husband has put a sharpened sword by the bed: If even the smallest resemblance to a Negro The baby would have, then eternal sleep awaits Both the child and the mother.
