Luckily her husband had 'connections&#8217; and had her removed. Afterwards she made her way to Wilno where she continued performing until her arrest by the NKVD who transported her for hard labour in Uzbekistan.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the Sikorski &#8211; Majski Agreement of 1941 she was given passage to join other Polish civilians in India and Beirut. Her body had been severely damaged from the forced labour camps deep in Stalin&#8217;s USSR and she passed away from tuberculosis in 1950.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ordonowna had a passion to help protect the orphans from the Polish civilians who had died in the Gulags across the USSR. She set up an orphanage and wrote a book on the topic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her contribution to Poland went far deeper than singing. She was not only a genius but had the heart of an angel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her ashes lie in Pow\u0105zki Cemetery in Warsaw. Please visit her grave and lay a flower for one of Poland&#8217;s greatest daughters.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/urmYJAiwv_w\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>O m\u00f3j rozmarynie &#8211; Oh my Rosemary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The song tells the story of a boy becoming a soldier.
