Kolo richky, kolo brodu sova vodu pyla;
Yuva, yuva, yo cho-cho-cho, sova vodu pyla.

Oy tam maty svoyu dochku koromyslom byla;
Yuva, yuva, yo cho-cho-cho, koromyslom byla.

– Oy ty, donyu, ty, Halyno, chot' trochy pokaysya;
Yuva, yuva, yo cho-cho-cho, chot' trochy pokaysya.

To y u toho Stepanchyka ta y tak ne vlyublyaysya;
Yuva, yuva, yo cho-cho-cho, ta y tak ne vlyublyaysya!
