Furtki trzy
Maryla Rodowicz Lyrics

The lyrics to Maryla Rodowicz's song Furtki trzy describe a sense of closure and finality in a relationship. The singer talks about closing three gates to paradise (Do raju furtki trzy) in May and locking all the doors, even the ones to the bar. She mentions that the violets were blooming and even the old lilacs were in full bloom which made her breathless. Despite this, she is resolute in her decision to close herself off emotionally and physically from her partner. The singer refers to the fact that there was not even any dust left after her partner's departure, everything was clean and tidy like he never existed. Even though the birds sing in the park and the phones are silent, she believes it's better that way. The lyrics end with the singer declaring that there is no "together" or "us" anymore, all the doors are closed and even the pine cones have fallen.

The song seems to be a reflection on the end of a relationship, and perhaps even the idea of closure and how it can be difficult to achieve emotionally. There is a sense of finality in the repetition of the line "Nie został nawet kurz, Łyżeczki pół, czy tępy nóż, Po tobie mój mały" (Not even a speck of dust, a half-empty spoon, or a dull knife were left after you, my little one). The singer seems to be trying to convince herself that she is better off without her partner, but there is a hint of longing in the lyrics.
