Verse commentary in Polish presents mourning over the personalized credit (buying on credit I warn you, do not go anywhere without money - Przestrzegam was nie chodźcie nigdzie bez pieniędzy):

Że na ten rok nikędy kredytu nie mają
Przestrzegam was nie chodźcie nigdzie bez pieniędzy
Bo dla tego kredytu niejeden jest w nędzy
O nieszczęsny kredycie/ coś nam to wyrządził/
Lepiej żebyś we zdrowiu upiwszy się błądził.
Po karczmach po ulicach i choćbyś też zachorzał
Oszukałeś nas bardzo / żebyś w piekle gorzał.
