Hi all! My grandparents were Polish, but never taught my Mother so the language has been lost in our family. I'm a church musician, and often families request Witaj Krolówo for funerals. Can anyone supply a phonetic pronunciation for the first few verses? Thanks in advance!!!

Vee-tay kroo-loh-voh nye-bah ee mat-koh leet-oshch-ee,
Vee-tay na-zhyay-oh nash-a , v smoot-koo ee zhaw-ohshch-ee

K-Toh-byay vig-nany-tsih Ev-ih voh-wam-ih, sin-oh-vyay
K-Toh-byay vzdih-ham-ih pwach-ohnts z pad-ow-ooh wyenzh-ee-oh-vyay

Oh-rend-ohv-neech-ko nash-a, rach sveh leet-oshch-ee-way
Oh-czih spooshch-eech na nah-szay serts-a zhaw-ohsh-lee-way

Ee oh-wohts bwoh-goh-swav-yohn zhih-voh-ta Tvoy-egg-oh
Rach poh-kaz-ach po zayshch-you z shwyat-a meez-er-negg-oh

O wask-av-a poh-bohzh-na o shvyent-a Marih-ya,
Nyay-hi ben-don zbav-yen-ee vshi-tsy grzhesh-nee-tsih ee ya.

(When I write 'zh' its like the s sound in pleasure)
This is an approximate phonetic translation, not all Polish sounds can be written in an English way.
