Uprising

Warsaw, rise!

Do you remember when, when the Nazis forced their rule on Poland?

1939 and the allies turned away

From the underground rose a hope of freedom as a whisper

City in despair, but they never lost their faith

Women, men and children fight

They were dying side by side

And the blood they shed upon the streets

Was a sacrifice willingly paid

Warsaw, city at war

Voices from underground, whispers of freedom

1944

Help that never came

Calling Warsaw, city at war

Voices from underground, whispers of freedom

Rise up and hear the call

History calling to you

Warszawo, walcz!

Spirit, soul and heart

In accordance with the old traditions

1944

Still the allies turn away

Fighting street to street

In a time of hope and desperation

Did it on their own and they never lost their faith

Women, men and children fight

They were dying side by side

And the blood they shed upon the streets

Was a sacrifice willingly paid

Warsaw, city at war

Voices from underground, whispers of freedom

1944

Help that never came

Calling Warsaw, city at war

Voices from underground, whispers of freedom

Rise up and hear the call

History calling to you

Warszawo, walcz!

All the streetlights in the city

Broken many years ago

Break the curfew, hide in sewers

Warsaw, it's time to rise now

All the streetlights in the city

Broken many years ago

Break the curfew, hide in sewers

Warsaw, it's time to rise now

Warsaw, city at war

Voices from underground, whispers of freedom

1944

Help that never came

Calling Warsaw, city at war

Voices from underground, whispers of freedom

Rise up and hear the call

History calling to you

Warszawo, walcz!
