Can someone please confirm that I have the following phrases in the right context and grammar. It is going to be a new tattoo tribute to my parents and I would like for it to be correct before I get it.

Mój ojciec dał mi siłę i mądrość
Moja matka dała mi miłość i piękność

Thanks for your time and help!!

Beauty, as an abstract noun.

"piękność" is just a very old fashion word. It sounds funny. We do not use it in the contemporary Polish

Polonius3:
How about ...miłość i urodę...?

What do you mean?

If by beauty you mean good looking, handsome use word "uroda" not "piękno or piękność".

ehopeross:
Moja matka dała mi miłość i piękność

It will be as Polonius3 suggests:

Moja matka dała mi miłość i urodę.

moja matka dała mi miłość i piękno
uroda isn't good word
uroda mean that you look good
piękno - is something more that uroda
