It is a love song, the girl is singing about how happy she is to have a boy, and his closeness gives her strength for living.

Polish lyrics:

Miałam Ci ja chłopacka jak kropelka rosy,
bielusieńki na twazy, kręcą mu się włosy.
Chłopaku, chłopaku ulubione serce,
jak ja Ciebie nie widzę, robić mi się nie chce.

Jak ja Ciebię zobacę na godzinę na dnie,
Robi mi się oj robi robótecka ładnie.
Chłopaku, chłopaku ulubione serce,
jak ja Ciebie nie widzę, robić mi się nie chce.
