Lyrics to the song Marek Grechuta - Niepewność :

When I don't see you, I don't sigh, I don't cry,
I don't lose my mind when I see you;
However, when I don't see you for a long time,
I miss something, I demand to see someone;
And longing I ask myself:
Is this friendship, is this love?

When you disappear from my sight, I can never once
In thought renew your image;
However, I sometimes feel despite my desire,
That he is always close to my memory.
And again I repeat the question to myself:
Is this friendship? Is this love?

I suffered at times, I did not think at all,
That I should go before you to pour out my regrets;
Walking aimlessly, not keeping an eye on the road,
I myself do not comprehend how I come to your threshold;
And upon entering I ask myself:
What led me here? Friendship or love?

For your health I would not spare my life,
For your peace of mind I would descend to hell;
Though bold desire is not in my heart,
So that I would be health and peace to you.
And again I repeat the question to myself:
Is this friendship, is this love?

When you put your hand on my palms,
A kind of calmness wraps me,
I seem to end my life in a light sleep;
But I am awakened by a livelier heartbeat,
Which asks me aloud the question:
Is this friendship, or is it also love?

When I composed this song for you,
The giddy spirit of my mouth was not in command;
Full of wonder, I did not perceive myself,
Whence came my thoughts as I ran on the rhymes;
And I wrote down the question at the end:
What inspired me? Friendship or love?
