Another Monday and I would to invite you to dreamy Kraków. An extraordinary city whose appearance we can recognize even from the map from two centuries ago. Thought and organized, chaos here is not possible.
Krak's stronghold is in the heart of every Pole.
Krakow is still authentic, real.
Kraków is always squatting - even in November, even in winter, even in the fog at any moment. This city is artistic, colorful and sculptural, it does not matter what the weather is like, it looks dreamy. It's difficult to choose which other city is the same (maybe Gdańsk is also a city of painters :)). Even when it's pouring - this is the place where you can sit down.
Even if you get mad and with your fists clenched, you will run somewhere through the city, you will stop, you will stand (even in winter) before the Kraków view, and you will calm down.
The last song by Marek Grechuta about his beloved city.
Let's take another walk through charming Kraków in a beautiful ballad, which is intertwined with profound feelings of artists and reflects the real image of the invaluable Kraków.
Myslovitz & Marek Grechuta - Kraków
MAREK:
Kraków jeszcze nigdy tak jak dziś
nie miał w sobie takiej siły i
może to ten deszcz, może przez tę mgłę
ale w każdej twarzy ciągle widzę cię
wśród turystów rynek tonie znów
ktoś zakrzyknął głośno, błysnął flesz
na Gołębiej twój płaszcz zaczepił mnie
w wystawowym oknie w tłumie gdzieś
widzę cię tak wiem
nie zrobię więcej zdjęć tak wiem
nie będę prosił, lecz tak wiem
to przecież żaden grzech tak wiem
MYSLOVITZ:
Kraków hejnał gra tak wita mnie
patrzy na mnie jakby wiedział, że
wracam po to by choć na kilka chwil
zamknąć oczy i móc uwierzyć, że
widzę cię tak wiem
nie zrobię więcej zdjęć tak wiem
nie będę prosił lecz tak wiem
to przecież żaden grzech tak wiem
MAREK:
widzę cię tak wiem
nie zrobię więcej zdjęć tak wiem
nie będę prosił lecz tak wiem
to przecież żaden grzech tak wiem
MAREK:
Cracow has never had such power
like today
Perhaps it's this rain or perhaps because of this fog
but in every face I still see You.
The Market drowns with tourists
Someone yelled out loud, a flash flashed
On Gołębiej Street your coat caught my eye
in a shop window somewhere in a crowd
I see you, of that I'm sure
I won't take any more pictures, of that I'm sure
I won't be begging, although I know
that it's no sin, of that I'm sure
MYSLOVITZ:
Cracow plays Cracovian Hymn and greets me thus
Looks upon me as if it knew
That I have returned so that
If but for a few moments to close my eyes and believe
that
I see you, of that I'm sure
I won't take any more pictures, of that I'm sure
I won't be begging, although I know
that it's no sin, of that I'm sure
MAREK:
Isee you, of that I'm sure
I won't take more pictures, of that I'm sure
I won't be begging, although I know
that it's no sin, of that I'm sure
Gołębia Street
"On Gołębia Street, my coat accosted me in the show window, on the bus, in the crowd somewhere."
"In 1830, the first lamps in Krakow, powered from a makeshift gas plant, fired at Gołębia Street. Krakow was the first Polish city in which gas lighting was presented."
Kraków - Miracles on a stick
Kraków in the fog of kings surrounded.
They walk around the courtyard of Wawel,
introducing the history of events.
They are tangible after dark.
Kraków - spins stories.
The dragon looks in disbelief,
to see the wonders of the city,
and artistic surroundings.
Kraków - where time flows freely,
where are still the same faces.
Everyone has their visions,
the city slowly discovers them.
Kraków - you slow down, the wine rustles.
Time is not important,
a fleeting moment.
Which remains forever
