Back to school time! Posted by on Aug 31, 2014 in Uncategorized

Can’t believe summer is over already! Especially when you live in New Hampshire…and winters may last 7 months! Anyway…it was a great summer. Weather was amazing and I was able to spend some quality time with my family at the beach, paddle boarding on the lake, biking and camping!

I found this really cute Polish poem about end of the summer/back to school time!

Here it is with translation and pronunciation video:)

Powrót do szkoły

Na dworze biegają dzieci

śmieją się bawią ochoczo

jeszcze słoneczko im świeci

i z wakacjami się droczą

Pogoda wrześniem spojrzała

trochę się zimniej zrobiło

tak jakby już wyczuwała

że czas wakacji mija

Już w głowie plany nowe

obietnice i przyrzeczenia

książki zeszyty gotowe

a lato oblicze swe zmienia

Chłodne noce krótsze dnie

ranki szare i mgliste

jednak do szkoły się chce

myśli są jasne i czyste

Nim dzwonek powita pierwszy

jeszcze podwórka wesołe

i czas wakacji cieszy

już jutro witamy szkołę

A powrót będzie miły

czekają przyjaciele

więc uczniu nabieraj siły

nauki nigdy za wiele.

Back to school

Children play outside

They run and play gladly

Sun is still shining

And they they are having fun with holidays

Weather looked at us with September

It got a little colder

Just like she would know

That holidays are almost over

New plans in the head already

Promises and pledges

Books and notebooks are ready

And summer changes its aspect

Chilly nights and shorter days

Gray and foggy mornings

But kids want to go back to school

With bright and clean thoughts

Before the first school bell

Playgrounds are still happy

And still enjoying summer

Tomorrow we will start school

And going back will be fun

All friends are already waiting

So gain some strength

Never too much of learning

About the Author: Kasia

My name is Kasia Scontsas. I grew near Lublin, Poland and moved to Warsaw to study International Business. I have passion for languages: any languages! Currently I live in New Hampshire. I enjoy skiing, kayaking, biking and paddle boarding. My husband speaks a little Polish, but our daughters are fluent in it! I wanted to make sure that they can communicate with their Polish relatives in our native language. Teaching them Polish since they were born was the best thing I could have given them! I have been writing about learning Polish language and culture for Transparent Language’s Polish Blog since 2010.

    Cześć Kasia! Thanks for all the great articles! I’ve started learning polish not so ago, and I just came upon your articles, and they seem quite interesting! And also, quite helpful to learn polish, both grammar and the like, and other miscellaneous stuff!
    So thanks again, and hope you continue writing!!
