Need (Want) a Translation

[jeanne]

I really like webcams and usually have one or another from places in Poland on the screen of my computer. I like to watch the Masses, devotions, and ceremonies taking place in the chapel of Our Lady of Czestochowa. I don't know most of the words of the hymns they sing, but I like listening to the Polish language anyway. I have picked up a few (very few) words, and certainly during a Mass, I can tell what prayers they are saying.

There is a hymn they sing there quite often and I would really like to know something about it. Each line, or verse of the lyrics begins with a word that sounds like "vee-ty" in phonetic English with the "ty" rhyming with the English word "my," like "my book." What is that word? (What is the Polish spelling and what does it mean?)

Can anyone help me out with this?

Here's the link to the webcam I watch:

So, I figured out that the word that is repeated is "witaj." I'm assuming because of the context it is translated "hail." I still would like to know the name of the song, or the rest of the words or the translation...

Yes, it is witaj - hello or welcome. I tried to find it but am not sure about the result: Is it this song?

Hail Lady!

Thanks for trying, but no, that is not the song. The tune is different; the word "witaj" is sung at the start of several lines, and there is a pause after that word is sung, or maybe I should say the word is sung for...maybe three beats? (I am not very knowledgeable about music matter! )

I am trying to find it but not sure again

How about Salve Regina ?

Sorry, that's not it either.

Each line of the song begins with "Wi...taj...." held for about 3 to 4 beats, then "da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da, ..." then again,

"Wit...taj....da-da," etc.

Not being musical, that's about the best I can do to describe it!

Only witaj and da da da? that`s too simple to be of any real religious value.

I am afraid I won`t be able to find it.
