What it means
Literally “it came easily, it went easily.” Means easy come, easy go — things gained without effort are lost just as easily.
Vocabulary
- lekko — easily, lightly
- przyjść — to come
- pójść — to go
Grammar note
Both verbs are impersonal past perfective — 'przyszło' and 'poszło' (neuter). The parallel structure mirrors the symmetry of the meaning.
