Polish patriotic music!

What are some Polish patriotic songs and groups? I am not necessarily looking for national anthems and medieval music, preferably music from 1960-2010.

“Sen o Warszawie”, although not patriotic to some, that kind of music, or old school punk rock / rock.

Thank you!

When it comes to modern patriotic music - try Lao Che and their Warsaw Uprising album (Lao Che - Powstanie Warszawskie).

Chłopcy z Placu Broni: "Niepodległość"

Hey - they're using my avatar! Well... it used to be my avatar when avatars were still allowed here :(

A couple of more songs, maybe not "patriotic songs" per se, but very Polish in spirit
(the entire generation of Poles grew up with that music before we got hip-hop, Doda,
Lady Gaga etc.).

So far, only good! Thank you all! Polish music is really _unique_ in a very positive way imo.

If Lady Pank were English they would be widely recognized! At the same time I am very happy they're not.

I am so proud to be Polish and share the Polish rock music with my non-polish friends and colleagues.

I think Gregorian chants, being endorsed and reawakened by the RCC towards the end of the last century, could class as patriotic. I have almost 3 hours worth which I can listen to on WinAmp. It is inextricably associated with Roman Catholicism but I just like the melodies.

This is the music of Jesus :) :) :)

Translate that :

Bij bolszewika w każdej go postaci,
bo to jest twój największy dzisiaj wróg.
To przecież on kościami twoich braci,
brukował sieć swych niezliczonych dróg
To przecież on na Sybir gnał twe dzieci,
a z jęków ich wesołą składał pieśń.
To przecież on dziś naszych ojców gnieci,
i każe im komuny jarzmo nieść.
To przecież on w katyńskim ciemnym lesie
wbił w polską pierś znienacka ostry nóż,
mordując tam najlepszych polskich synów
jak podły zbir, nikczemny zdrajca, tchórz.

Song sung by those fighting against Soviets after 1945 on the territories you call "ukrainian"!

Bogurodzica was a Polish battle song in Medieval times:
pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogurodzica_%28pie%C5%9B%C5%84%29

Bogurodzica (Polish pronunciation: [bɔɡurɔˈd͡ʑit͡sa], Mother of God) is the oldest Polish religious hymn. It was composed somewhere between the 10th and 13th centuries. The origin of the song is not clear.

Polish knights sang it as an anthem before the Battle of Grunwald and during the battle with the Turkish army at Varna in 1444. Bogurodzica also accompanied the coronation ceremonies of the first Jagiellonian kings.

Polish knights sang it as an anthem before the Battle of Grunwald

and the Teutonic Knights sang "Chrystus zmartwychwstał". Bizzare since the Teutonic Knights proper name was: The Order of Brothers of the German House of Saint Mary in Jerusalem. They should have swap songs ;)

As for military/patriotic songs I propose pieśni legionowe:



"O mój rozmarynie"
"Bywaj dziewczę zdrowe"
"Przybyli ułani"
"Pierwsza kadrowa"
"Rozkwitały pąki białych róż"

"Christ ist erstanden" ! I will remember it from the film and the book for ever! :):):):)

youtube.com/watch?v=YoqvUL9_WeE

In the film at 6:28 and 9:03. Polish Bogurodzica at 6.52

"O mój rozmarynie"
"Bywaj dziewczę zdrowe"
"Przybyli ułani"
"Pierwsza kadrowa"
"Rozkwitały pąki białych róż"

Nice collection. My fav is Buds of White Roses.

Looking for army/patriotic songs in English and Polish.

Does anyone know a site or book that has Polish army / patriotic songs in Polish and English? would appreciate it.

Try Treasured Polish Songs which contains patriotic and soldier songs with notes in Polish and english translation. It was published in the USA by Polanie. Jacek Gałązka from Poland has also published such a book but I forget the title.

There's news that Poland has removed the word "Niemiec" (German) from a very popular Polish patriotic poem / song taught in Polish schools: Rota ("The Oath"). They are supposedly replacing it with the word "Krzyżak" (Prussian). Rewriting culture and history as we speak.

replacing it with the word "Krzyżak" (Prussian).

Can someone explain to me how a Teutonic Knight in armor was supposed to spit in our face? A German would have been more fitting.

That's the funny part; it makes no sense to use "Krzyżak" instead of "Niemiec" there. Maybe they picked the word to kill two birds with one stone - first to protect the Germans, second to associate the word "Krzyżak" with the "cross" - meaning that followers or Jesus are to blame. I sense AI logic there.

Krzyżak

Where comes that word from in the first place? That sounds in no way like "Prussian...
