Don't treat that site as a reliable source of information, Mr Peczkis. It was created by hate-mongers and paranoiacs. <br />Don't look for polonophobic Jews in Poland. There is a friendlier environment for them in the West.

Feliks Konarski is not mentioned.<br /><br />My translation was amateurish. It lacks the rhyming found in the original. Hopefully someone will make a better version.<br />To be honest, I acted on impulse. The Katyń Museum was opened that day.

Even myaddress to you - 'Pan Lukasz' rather than 'Pan Klimek' implies a degree of friendliness but also respect which is missing from any English construction.<br /><br />You offered your own translation of one of Hemar's pieces on this very blog, here:<br /><br />http://bieganski-the-blog.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/western-european-vs-eastern-european.html#comment-form<br /><br />This was an extremely moving piece, of course, but - apparently, that particular poem was written by Hemar in collaboration with Feliks Konarski,Michal Karskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485336940590433312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8471082069031980581.post-55925073291700402822015-12-04T15:47:03.428-05:002015-12-04T15:47:03.428-05:00Hello,

It was used in a revue "Orzeł czy Rzeszka" (Eagle or little Reich). Actor who performed that song was dressed as...Adolf Hitler.<br />Song has caused an intervention of the German ambassador. <br />During the Nazi occupation Hemar was searched for by the Gestapo.<br /><br />How many of You thought about Mel Brooks and his song from "To Be or Not To Be"?<br /><br />He defended the Polish Forces in the West from accusations of antisemitism. He wrote to "The Times":<br />"But if too many Englishmen are prone to see every German as rather "good", and every Pole as rather fascist and anti-Semite - please not suspect that I am one of them, since I am a Jew."<br /><br />I didn't find any translations of his poems, so forgive my poor English.<br />Moją Ojczyzną jest polska mowa,<br />Gdy umrę, w niej pochowają mnie,<br />I w niej zostanę.<br /><br />My Homeland is the Polish language,<br />When I die, they will bury me in it,<br />And there I will remain.Łukasz Klimeknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8471082069031980581.post-28783078197175680482015-12-04T13:20:28.529-05:002015-12-04T13:20:28.529-05:00Maureen Mroczek Morris sent this:
