"Ni, ni" – shepochu ya u niznu nich.
"Ni, ni" – i snih letyt' i niby plache.
Nadvori studin, viter, zymna sich,
Nevze tebe ya bilshe ne pobachu?

Pryspiv:
Tebe nema, a ya shepochu: "Ni, ni,
Ne zalyshay mene u zametili,
Ne viryu, shcho ne bude vze vesny,
Shcho spohadiv lyshylys' tilky tini".

I znov shepochu: "Ni, ne treba, ni"
I shche zi mnoyu ochi, huby, ruky,
Ne viryu, shcho lyshyv meni lysh muky,
Shcho bachymos' z toboyu tilky v sni.

Pryspiv

Soloni shchoky y huby u vohni,
A snih i viter b’yut'sya bez potreby,
Ya ne vtomlyus' povtoryuvaty "Ni",
Ya lysh z toboyu, tilky bilya tebe.
