– Proshchay, divchyno, proshchay, yedyna,
Bo ya vze yidu na viynu,
A tebe, neshchasnu molodu divchynu,
Raz navik-viky pokynu.

Proshchay, divchyno, proshchay, yedyna,
Bo ya vze sichovyi strilec',
Moze, za rochok, moze, za chotyry
Stanem oboye pid vinec'.

Proshchay, divchyno, proshchay, yedyna,
Bo klyche mene Vitchyzna.
Krov’yu zroshena, v kaydany zakuta –
Ce nasha slavna Ukrayina.

Rozproshchalysya ta y roziyshlysya,
Kozak poyichav na viynu,
A mene, neshchasnu molodu divchynu,
Raz na vik-viky pokynuv.

– Oy ty, zemlyce, oy ty, syraya,
Chom ty tak tyazko karayesh:
Tych shchonaykrashchych ukrayins'kych heroyiv
Ty v syru zemlyu chovayesh.
