A religious anthem to the Virgin Mary dating back to between 10th and 13th centuries. It was a de facto national anthem of medieval Poland, sung at royal coronations and on battlefields, including the Battle of Grunwald in 1410 and the Battle of Varna in 1444.
Bogurodzica, dziewica, Bogiem sławiena Maryja!
Twego syna, Gospodzina, matko zwolena Maryja,
Zyszczy nam, spuści nam.
Kyrie eleison.
