Lyrics “Gaja” by Justyna Steczkowska
Polish & English
Gaja
(They call me Gaia)
Ranisz moje serce Ty
Który moją miłość masz za nic
Naznaczyłeś sobą mnie
Obudziłeś samotności krzyk
Moje imię Gaja
Jestem bogiem
Siłą
Moją matką miłość
Kiedy płaczę
To we łzach tonie świat
Tulę w swych ramionach zaginiony czas
Gaja…
Ja Gaja…
Czas
Ja Gaja…
Jestem stwórcą twego ja
Duszy zgubą
Twoim ocaleniem
W krwioobiegu płynie czas
Święta woda zmywa przeznaczenie
They call me Gaia
I’m the love
I’m the life of all imagined
The world drowns as it watches me cry
I’ll be holding it close in my arms
Moje imię Gaja

Gaia
(They call me Gaia)
You wound my heart, you
The one who holds my love as nothing
You have marked me with yourself
Awakened the scream of loneliness
My name is Gaia
I’m a god
A force
My mother is love
When I cry
The world drowns in tears
I cradle lost time in my arms
Gaia…
I, Gaia…
Time
I, Gaia…
I’m the creator of your self
The bane of the soul
Your salvation
Time flows through the bloodstream
Sacred water washes fate away
They call me Gaia
I’m the love
I’m the life of all imagined
The world drowns as it watches me cry
I’ll be holding it close in my arms
My name is Gaia
