A v Byshkach okopy kopaly ukrayins'ki sichovi strilci,
A v selach Potokach strilyaly zavzyato vorohy-moskali."

Ubyly strilcya sichovoho, a strilec toy buv molodyi,
A nazva, rodynna u noho, Volodymyr Zahuls'kyi.

I tilo yoho schoronyly v seli Konyuchach "na mistechku",
Pislaly rodyni z sumnoyu – pro smert' syna-brata – vistochku.

I potekla sloza bat'kivs'ka po yoho izmorshchenim lyci,
I po bilim lychku sestrychky, az serce styskalo klishchi.

I tilo yoho pochovaly, postavyly chrest vysokyi,
A na nim – zolotiyi bukvy: "Tut spochyv strilec' Zahuls'kyi".

A chlopci-molodci uklaly vysoku mohylu z dernya,
A v Zeleni svyata spishyly do yoho mohyly z pisnyamy.

Katy tam proklyati ne daly ni odnoyi zaspivat',
No zaraz u temnuyu nichku kazaly mohylu rozkopat'.

Rozkopaly katy mohylu, az strilec'ke tilo rushyly,
A chrest toy z berezy bilyavyi v dolynu, v boloto, zatyahly.

Budesh ty, voroze proklyatyi, za tuyu mohylu strazdat',
Budesh ty lezaty, krychaty, a my tvoyi kosty lomat'.
