Abstract
The article contains a semantic and stylistic analysis of the song by Wojciech Młynarski entitled Let’s Do What Is Ours! (Pol. Róbmy swoje!), carried out with particular emphasis on the axiological intention of the author. The work promoting the attitude of intellectual courage, creative activity and perseverance, which serves the civilization values verbalized by the author in the form of a triad “culture, art, freedom of speech”, was considered a modern paraenesis, in which numerous linguistic and literary means (and in particular the title phrase, which became a winged word) were used to shape the worldview of the audience. The text has been reviewed against the artist’s entire legacy, the usefulness of which for didactics of Polish was reflected in the new base for teaching program for high school.
