Stoyit' topolya, nache dolya,
Yaka vrosla u rodovid,
Hilkamy synye nebo kole,
Zbyraye horlycyu v polit.
Stoyit' topolya na rozdolli,
Lehenda pam’yati zyva
I lystyam promovlya povoli
Svyati Shevchenkovi slova.

Pryspiv:
Topolya, topolya, hlyboke korinnya,
Polit zuravlynnyi yiyi verchovit'.
Topolya, topolya, zaduma osinnya
V ochach moho sercya, yak matir stoyit'.

Stoyit' topolya, den svitaye
V yiyi potriskaniy kori.
Stoyit' odnenka, vyhlyadaye
Svoyich syniv z krutych daliv.
Stoyit' topolya, ne stariye,
Yiyi obchodyt' chasu myt'
I ya vtishayus', i radiyu,
Shcho korin z neyu v nas odyn.
