Yak nastala dolya chorna, ta dolya chorna, ta hey!
Na Vkrayini melyat' zorna, ta melyat' zorna, ta hey!

Pryspiv:
Prykaz strohyi: "Zorna zdat'!".

Tam chodyat' z torbynamy, nasypayut' kulakamy,
Krutyat' zorna vpravo, vlivo, shchob yisty sya ne chtilo, ta hey!

Pyshe Stalin do Hitlera, ta do Hitlera, ta hey!
Melyat' zorna, yak cholera, ta yak cholera, ta hey!

Hitler yomu vidpysuye, ta vidpysuye, ta hey!
Shcho vsi zorna konfiskuye, ta hey!

Yak pryyichav lyandvid hrubyi, ta lyand hrubyi, ta hey!
Ta y za zorna vybyv zuby, ta vybyv zuby, ta hey!

Yak madyary nastupaly, ta nastupaly, ta hey!
Ukrayinu zhrabuvaly, ta zhrabuvaly, ta hey!

Bat'ku Stalin, day nam myla, ta day nam myla, ta hey!
Bo vze voshi mayut' kryla, ta mayut' kryla, ta hey!
