Hello all: today is Thanksgiving in the U.S. when friends and family gather to eat and celebrate. The tradition is to say "grace" before the meal. Can anyone post a prayer of thanksgiving in Polish (or in a transliteration) that I can use for the Thanksgiving dinner, or at other times when a meal is served. I am 3rd generation Polish-American -- both parents spoke Polish, but, regretfully, did not teach us children. I recall that in our family, we generally did not say grace before meals, except at special holidays like Christmas and Easter, when a communion wafer was shared among the guests.
Do Poles say grace before meals in this manner? Are there any particular prayers they recite, or is it improvised?
