Letnia ulewa

Przed chwilą słońce.

Nagle … ulewa!

Bije o ziemię,

bije o drzewa,

na szybach dzwoni

i w rynnach śpiewa,

w kałużach pluszcze

letnia ulewa.

I znowu cicho.

Znowu pogoda.

W całym ogrodzie

kałuże, woda…

Po ścieżkach płyną

srebrne strumyki…

Prędko! Zbierajmy

leśne kamyki,

port budujmy,

gdzie płytkie morze.

Tamy stawiajmy

w ciepłym jeziorze.

Puszczajmy łodzie

z listeczków gruszy,

nim ziemię znowu

słońce osuszy…

Summer rain

A moment ago, beautiful sun.

Suddenly … a downpour!

Beats the ground,

beats by trees,

rings on the windows

and in gutters singing,

in pools of dippers

summer downpour.

And again, quiet.

Again the beautiful weather.

Throughout the garden

pools of water …

After the flow paths

silver streams …

Hurry! Let’s

pick pebbles,

let us build the port,

where shallow sea.

dams for nothing less

in the warm lake.

Let put boats

from pear leafs on the water,

Before ground will be

dried by the sun sun again …

Do następnego razu… (Till next time…)
