MocArt 2015 together with Marcin Przybyłowicz and Mikołaj Stroiński), who performed all over the Europe and world. During the Wild Hunt Live show the group presents music that is perfectly known to any Witcher game fan – songs that became a part of the soundtrack, mostly in their original, initial versions.

Jare
Percival Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kiedy się raduje świat,
Gdy się sercom śni wesele
Gdy na łące kwitnie kwiat
I gdy ptaszek gniazdko ściele
Słowik nocą słodko kląska
Kukułeczka w lesie kuka
Podśpiewuje drozd w gałązkach
I turkawka cicho huka

Gdy się z wiosną budzi moc
Gdy wysoki lot skowronka
Gdy z dziewczyną w słodką noc
Chłopak się po gaju błąka
Wtedy kwitnie polna róża
Wtedy złoci się stokrotka
Z trawy orlik się wynurza
Gdy fiołka gdzie napotka

Gdy się z wiosną budzi moc
Gdy wysoki lot skowronka
Gdy z dziewczyną w słodką noc
Chłopak się po gaju błąka
Wtedy kwitnie polna róża
Wtedy złoci się stokrotka

Z trawy orlik się wynurza
Gdy fiołka gdzie napotka

Overall Meaning

The song Jare by Percival is an ode to the beauty of nature and the joys of life. The lyrics describe the world rejoicing and hearts dreaming of happiness, as flowers bloom and birds sing sweetly. The nightingale trills its beautiful song, the cuckoo calls from the forest, and other birds chirp peacefully. The second verse talks about the power of the spring season, as larks soar high and couples wander through the woods at night. The countryside is painted with the colors of wildflowers like the golden daisy, violet, and orlik. The song celebrates the simple joys of life and nature.

The combination of the Polish lyrics and the traditional folk-inspired melody create an uplifting and light-hearted atmosphere. Percival's vocals are tender and soothing, providing a sense of peacefulness to the listeners. The use of traditional instruments such as the accordion and violin adds to the song's authenticity and enhances the imagery of the countryside.

Kiedy się raduje świat,
When the world rejoices,

Gdy się sercom śni wesele
When hearts dream of weddings,

Gdy na łące kwitnie kwiat
When flowers bloom in the meadow,

I gdy ptaszek gniazdko ściele
And birds build their nests,

Słowik nocą słodko kląska
Nightingale sweetly sings at night,

Kukułeczka w lesie kuka
Cuckoo calls in the forest,

Podśpiewuje drozd w gałązkach
Thrush sings on the branches,

I turkawka cicho huka
And woodlark quietly hums.

Gdy się z wiosną budzi moc
When the strength awakens with spring,

Gdy wysoki lot skowronka
When the lark flies high,

Gdy z dziewczyną w słodką noc
When with a girl in a sweet night,
