"I am the Polish Viking"


Gods of wind, ice, and burns,

Gliding, leaping, swooping through air.

Ice bites as adrenaline flows,

losing breath when the mountains bow

To brilliance, absolute in gritty elegance and cheeky style

With gravity bending under godly might.

Agility and strength, the winds support invisible wings

As the almighty god of gods takes to the sky.

Farther, more grandly, proving his rights to his title

And to the golden token

That sways over his heart,

A constant reminder of honor and joy.
