The album opens with a serene rendition of "Cicha Noc" (Silent Night), setting a tranquil tone that contrasts beautifully with the upbeat disco polo rhythms that follow. Kayah's velvety vocals shine throughout, as she navigates both classic carols like "W żłobie leży" (In the Manger He Lies) and "Lulajże Jezuniu" (Lullaby, Little Jesus), and original compositions such as the title track "Gdy pada śnieg" (When Snow Falls) and "Nie było miejsca dla Ciebie" (There Was No Room for You).
