My Father in Law sent my daughter a couple of childrens CD's. THey are all very catchy tunes & I find myself having the songs running thru my head at odd times of the day & night. My problem is, is that I don't know what the songs are saying. Our favorite is Tosi Tosi L(w)apci as my husband use to sing it to her. Does anyone have the english for that one?
Some of the other title are:
Entliczek, Pentliczek
Plum Plum Misia Bela
Ele Mele Dutki
Raz, Dwa, Trzy, Cztery
English for these please.
Thanks,
KT

Polish Children's Song

Hey everyone,

I speak no Polish at all, but my grandmother does. Lately she has been slowly losing her memory, and I am trying to preserve some memories now. When I was younger, she used to sing a song to me. I can't remember what it means, or even if I am pronouncing it right, but it sounded something like this:

Oopye Shoopye, Oopye Shoopye, Oopye Shoopye Danna

If anyone has any idea what I am talking about, I could not thank you enough. I would love to remember this song again.

-Mike

This was a Polish polka made popular in the U.S. by Li'll Walley and other polka bands in the 1960s

Hupaj Siupaj Polka
Repeat Chorus: Hupaj siupaj, hupaj siupaj...

----------------

If you think that your Grandmother would like hear the song again send me email.

Hi,
I, too, have been looking for lyrics, info, etc. for that same song (my Polish dad used to sing it to us as kids, back in the '50s), and I posted a thread to that effect not too long ago, from which I got several helpful answers. So please check out "Looking for lyrics to 'Hoopai Shoopai'" (also under Polish Culture, about Jan. 22, 'o8), as there seems to have been more than one song written to this same tune. Also, the words "hupaj siupaj" (an exhortation to JUMP!, according to one source I found) appear in lyrics to other, completely different melodies, which makes the whole subject both fascinating and confusing all at once. Good luck in finding your grandmother's version.

hello I'm new here but I found this

A nasza kompania tam wo kopach stoi
tamwo kopach stoi, tam wo kopach stoi
I pis ze do caraze sie go nie boi,
ze sie go nie boi, hupaj siup.

Hupaj siupaj hupaj siupaj hupaj siupaj dana
hupaj siupaj dana hupaj siupaj dana ,
Wczoraj spalem na podlodze dzis na wiazce siana
hupaj siupaj dana hupaj siup.

or

Pije Kuba do Jakuba
Jakub do Michała
wiwat ty wiwat ja
kompanija cała.

A kto nie wypije
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupu cupu łupu
póki nie wypije.

W dawnym stanie choć w żupanie
szlachcic złoto dĽwiga
dzisiaj wpięto kuso wcięto
a w kieszeni figa.

Kto za mod± żyje
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupucupu łupu
niech modnie nie żyje.

Koroneczki perełeczki
miała pani sama
dzi¶ szynkarka i kucharka
stroi się jak dama.

Kto nad stan swój żyje
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupucupu łupu
niech nad stan nie żyje.

Indyk z sosem zraz z bigosem
jadły dawniej pany.
Dzi¶ ¶limaki i robaki
jedz± jak bociany.

Kto żabami żyje
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupu cupu łupu
niech gadem nie żyje.

Ty¶ Polakiem i ja takim
w tym jest nasza chwała
wiwat ty wiwat ja
kompanija cała.

A kto nie wypije
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupu cupu łupu
niech po polsku żyje.

Pili nasi pradziadowie
każdy wypił czarę
jednak głowy nie tracili
bo pijali miarę.

Kto nad miarę pije
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupu cupu łupu
niech po polsku żyje.

Pili nasi pradziadowie
nie byli pijacy
byli mężni pracowici
b±dĽmy i my tacy.

A kto nie wypije
tego we dwa kije
łupu cupu cupu łupu
niech po polsku żyje.

Hi,
I am looking for a polish children's song or lullaby. It has been passed down through generations but now no one is sure what the words are. Here is my best shot at one of the verses as is sounds in english:

aaaaaaaaA ka kee vah
sha de bu de oh bed va
nich nerendo oh be E
bendo *first name* bah ve Eeee Eeee Eeee eeE!

Please help me restore this song in my family.

-:)!

Tak jest. Bardzo dziękuję! Was recently at a gala event hosted by our local Fundacja Ko¶ćiuskiej and they sang this lovely song. I looked for the words in the Polish-language program, but to no avail.

Pozdrawiam,

polishgirltx , Thank you so much for your reply. I looked up your suggestion but it just doesn't sound right. Maybee i'm wrong, but I remember how the tempo and beat of the song goes. It just doesn't match up. Any other suggestions?


polishgirltx  Jul 16, 08, 20:01    #14
no problem guys....just a lucky guess....maybe somebody else really knows those songs...good luck :)

Polishgirltx is right, but there are different versions of it:


A, a - kotki dwa,
szare, bure obydwa.
Nic nie będ± robiły,
tylko dziecko bawiły.
Jak sie kotki rozigrały,
to dziecinę kołysały.
Jeden szary, drugi bury,
a ten trzeci myk! do dziury.
Żeby tylko jeden był,
toby z dzieckiem mleczko pił.

Hi found your song. Go to You Tube and type in ¦pij Kochanie. I hope this is what you are looking for. ¬ Bogęm. Krystyna

Ogórek w±saty

Wesoło jesieni± w ogródku na grz±dce,
Tu ruda marchewka tam str±czek,
Tu dynia jak słońce, tam główka sałaty,
A w k±cie ogórek w±saty.

Ref.:
Ogórek, ogórek, ogórek,
Zielony ma garniturek,
I czapkę i sandały,
Zielony, zielony jest cały.

Czasami jesieni± na grz±dkę w ogrodzie,
Deszczowa pogoda przychodzi,
Parasol ma w ręku, konewkę ma z chmur,
I deszczem podlewa ogórki.

Does anyone know the Krasnoludki song?

edit: Ok, nevermind - found it.

MY JESTE¦MY KRASNOLUDKI
muz./sł. tradycyjna

My jeste¶my krasnoludki,
Hopsa sa, hopsa sa,
Pod grzybkami nasze budki,
Hopsa, hopsa sa,
Jemy mrówki, żabkie łapki,
Oj tak tak, oj tak tak,
A na głowach krasne czapki,
To nasz, to nasz znak.

Gdy kto¶ zbł±dzi, to tr±bimy,
Trutu tu, trutu tu,
Gdy kto¶ senny, to u¶pimy,
Lulu lulu lu,
Gdy kto¶ skrzywdzi krasnoludka,
Ajajaj, ajajaj,
To zapłacze niezabudka,
Uuuuu.

I'm looking for a polish march that starts out

raz dwa trzy, raz dwa trzy

I don't know the rest of the words, but I do know the melody. If anyone has any suggestions, links, etc., it would be most appreciated.
