Rajewski - The First Engima Code Breaker... Poem by Aleksandra Szymanska

Why should you remember, mention his name?
Who was that guy, what had he done?
He hadn't done that for money and fame,
now credit's been given to the other man...

Turn the left rotor, I'll turn the right one.
Let's read the story of the never ending war.
Let's watch the spin of the rotten crown
above the envied land's every sore...

If mathematics was a great magic,
I'm sure he would've conjured death away...
His great equation turned to be tragic,
he shook the wrong hand, looked the wrong way...

Enigma screamed, 'Katyn! Aushwitz! Ghetto! '
But those who read it chose to watch in peace.
The collective grave couldn't say 'Liberum Veto! '
The guardian angel fell down on his knees...

Enigma resounds in the heart and head
of everyone who wants to share the true story,
of those who scream for so many dead,
but controlling greed won't ever feel sorry...
