The song by Czerwone Gitary is more than just a hit; it is the unofficial anthem of the Polish Christmas season. Here is the story of how this "perfect" holiday song came to be. 1. The "Polish White Christmas"

In the early 1970s, the band’s leader, , wanted to create a song that captured the specific, bittersweet atmosphere of Christmas Eve ( Wigilia ) in Poland. While many carols are religious, Krajewski and lyricist Krzysztof Dzikowski aimed for something universal—focusing on peace, forgiveness, and the one day a year when "disputes end." 2. A Collaborative Masterpiece The song was released in 1970 on the album Na fujarce .

Krajewski composed a melody that felt both nostalgic and hopeful, using a gentle acoustic arrangement that stood out from the rock-and-roll energy of the band's earlier work.
