Stare polskie tango: 'Złociste chryzantemy'

Golden chrysanthemums in a crystal vase
are standing on my piano,
soothing sorrow and regret.
Through the silvery and misty tears
I reach out my hands to them
and whisper one question:
why have you gone away?

Probably the latest tango recorded at Warsaw Odeon, just before the outbreak of the WW2, 1939 by a tenor, Janusz Popławski.
The song became through many years an evergreen sung by generations
always and ever.
