The dawn of century a boy born by a lake
Resettled from Karelia's plains
Go to a man in exile as the Great War came
Unleashed a shadow on his world
Witold, Witold, who knows his name?
Inmate in hell or a hero in prison?
Soldier in Auschwitz who knows his name
Locked in a cell, waging war from the prison
Hiding in Auschwitz who hides behind 4859
Outside not many came decided to break free
The end of April ‘43
Joined the Uprising, fight on the streets while hiding his rank
Takes command to serving his country in need
Witold, Witold, who knows his name?
Inmate in hell or a hero in prison?
Soldier in Auschwitz who knows his name
Locked in a cell, waging war from the prison
Hiding in Auschwitz who hides behind 4859
Sent to the prison where the heroes are judged as traitors
Accused of treason by his own
Sentenced by countrymen under pressure of foreign influence
Men he once fought to free
Inmate in hell or a hero in prison?
Soldier in Auschwitz we know his name
Locked in a cell, waging war from the prison
Hiding in Auschwitz he hides behind 4859
