English term or phrase: I was a stranger/You took me in.
I hear a voice
It’s whispering
In science and in medicine
“I was a stranger
You took me in”
(fragment z piosenki U2) - nie wiem, czy w tym wypadku "take in" bedzie oznaczac - przygarnac, czy oszukac. No i to "in science and in medicine" - w nauce i medycynie?
Dziwne to wszystko - licze na Wasza inwencje tworcza.
