NEWS AND COMMENTS

Don't know really - a bit of an unknown quantity these. Slightly favour these over the USA for 2nd place.

ANTHEM WORDS

Dombrowski's Mazurka

Poland has not yet succumbed.
As long as we remain,
What the foe by force has seized,
Sword in hand we'll gain.

CHORUS

March! March, Dabrowski!
March from Italy to Poland!
Under your command
We shall reach our land.

Cross the Vistula and Warta
And Poles we shall be;
We've been shown by Bonaparte
Ways to victory.

CHORUS

As Czarniecki Poznan town regains,
Fighting with the Swede,
To free our fatherland from chains,
We shall return by sea.
