The original lyrics were written by Józef Wybicki in Reggio Emilia, in Northern Italy, between 16 and 19 July 1797, two years after the Third Partition of Poland marked the end of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. Its initial purpose was to raise the morale of Jan Henryk Dąbrowski's Polish Legions (Napoleonic era), Polish Legions that served with Napoleon Bonaparte in the Italian campaigns of the French Revolutionary Wars.
