lyrics

wilku wilku
chodź do grochu
chodź do kaszy
chodź do piwa
chodź do chleba

wilku wilku
chodź do młyna
chodź do progu
chodź do sieni
chodź do izby

wilku wilku
chodź tu do mnie
chodź do mnie
chodź do mnie

Dawno temu na Podhalu, w najdłuższą noc w roku wychodzono na pole i wołano wilka, aby przyszedł na wieczerzę...
  „Miejsce, gdzie splatają się umysł i instynkty to miejsce, w którym spotykają się duchy kobiet i duchy wilków.” C.P.Estes

<><><>

A long time ago, in Podhale, in the longest night of the year, people would go out into the field and call out a wolf to come for supper ...

"A place where the mind and instincts intertwine are a place where ghosts of women and ghosts of wolves meet." C.P. Estes
