Ale Jestem (English translation: "But I Am") was the Polish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1997, performed in Polish by Anna Maria Jopek.
The song is a moderately up-tempo number, with Jopek singing about her realisation that life is there to be lived. She sings that she is a number of different things, including "A spark, a gasp of wind" and "A boat stray among the reefs".
The song was performed twelfth on the night (following Germany's Bianca Shomburg with Zeit and preceding Estonia's Maarja with Keelatud maa). At the close of voting, it had received 54 points, placing 11th in a field of 25.
It was succeeded as Polish representative at the 1998 Contest by Sixteen with To Takie Proste.
