Translation detailsModel: mistral-large-2512.

A rural girls’ game from certain regions of Lesser Poland, suitable for primary schools and the lowest grades of secondary schools. The girls form a circle, moving in time to the singing. In the center of the circle stands the princess, who after each verse of the song gives her courtiers a command—either verbal, whistled, or silent (depending on the troop’s training). Whoever executes the command incorrectly or is late switches places with the princess. A command issued in error is invalid.
