Merged: Best love poems by Adam Mickiewicz?

Hi everyone!

I'm making a special project for my husband (who is from Poland) and need a beautiful love poem by Adam Mickiewicz in original Polish. I've hunted through the internet and can't seem to find any suitable. Anyone have a favourite to recommend (with an English translation to go with it please, I'm still learning!)

Thanks in advance!

Life / Help me find this Polish band and song.... [117]

I speak very rudimentary Polish and even I can recognise that's a pretty dirty song! Don't know the first line though so really am of no help.

I don't know if you wanted it translated but to me it says:

Four legs in a pile
Man laying on the old woman
And a sausage in the butt.

Don't wish you didn't like him, I'm sure he's great and worthy of your affections! Honestly, I would do something like cook him dinner, maybe something traditional, which is very easy! There's lot of resources online, and I'm sure he'd really appreciate it. My husband and I are currently apart for about 2 months (he's back in Poland for a visit) so I understand not seeing each other often and wanting to make it count. But I really think the dinner idea is a winner.

I think that's an individual thing. My husband will sometimes, but it's always in a tasteful manner. Don't overthink it, sounds like you've definitely got his attention, and if it's not the only topic when you are together, then I wouldn't stress it.

My husband and I were intimate after 3 days, so don't be concerned. Really, I would be honest with him. In my situation there was no game playing. I would go with the flow, if you keep seeing eachother regularly to expect a relationship. After 4 days my husband just referred to me as his girlfriend in casual conversation, and that was that. We were together 6 months before we were married, and have now been married 7 months. I am not saying to expect that, just showing it as an example of how BS free the relationship was/is.

Just keep the lines of communication open and enjoy each other.

My husband is Polish, and I am Canadian, though we live in USA right now.

We have been married around a year. What I have noticed:

a) Excellent manners. My husband always opens every door, pulls out my chair, is very polite to me and all my friends. He tells me that it's cultural, that they are brought up in a matriarchal society and taught to treat women with respect. He never speaks to me harshly, and I'm trying to learn Polish and he won't even teach me to swear. The negative can be that they can be very disapproving if you speak in a vulgar way as a woman.

b) Willingness to help out around the house. I never have to ask, and he will often shoo me away if he is sweeping etc and I ask to help. He also helps with cooking.

c) They're very dedicated, you always know where you stand. There's no blurriness in where the relationship is. No no, if you're dating he isn't seeing anyone else.

d) He's very gently protective, not in overbearing way.
e) They really appreciate the small gestures. I made him a traditional Easter basket this year and muddled through writing him a sweet card in Polish, and he told his whole family about it.

Feel free to ask me any questions!
