Sama (English translation: "Alone") was the Polish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1995, performed in Polish by Justyna.

The song is somewhat elliptical lyrically. Justyna sings about feeling alone, comparing her state of mind to being "a little flea". She goes on to say that she feels "As if God, the good God/Didn't love little fleas".

The song was performed first on the night (preceding Ireland's Eddie Friel with Dreamin'). At the close of voting, it had received 15 points, placing 18th in a field of 23.

The song's performance was conducted by long-standing Irish ESC conductor Noel Kelehan.

It was succeeded as Polish representative at the 1996 Contest by Kasia Kowalska with Chcę znać swój grzech....
