Oy zrobyv chlopchyna ta y dvi krasni skrypky –
Podilyv nadvoye sniv svoyich krasu.
Shcho persha skrypka – bila lebidka,
A duha skrypka – vechirniy sum.

Zakochalys' v noho dvi sestry vesnoyu –
Odna – yak ta nichka, druha – mov toy den.
Persha prosyla hraty sumnoyi,
Druha chotila veselych pisen.

Pryspiv:
Odna smiyalas',
Plakala druha.
Hey, poyednalys'
Radist' i tuha.
Hey, poyednalys'
V ochach divchyny,
Yak u dvoch skrypkach,
Nochi i dnyny.

A yak roziyshlysya ti pisni lunoyu,
Vin zamovkli skrypky sestram dvom viddav.
Kozna divchyna stala verboyu,
Lehin miz nymy yavorom stav.

Pryspiv:
Zalyshyv na sviti dvi samotni skrypky,
Zalyshyv na sviti sniv svoyich krasu.
Shcho persha skrypka – bila lebidka,
A duha skrypka – vechirniy sum.

Tam, de stav yavir ponad playamy,
Znovu ya chuyu vidlunnya pisen:
Odna verba spivaye nochamy,
Druha verba spivaye uden.

Pryspiv:
Odna smiyet'sya,
I plache druha,
Hey, poyednalys'
Radist' i tuha,
Hey, poyednalys'
V ochach divchyny,
Yak u dvoch skrypkach
Nochi i dnyny.
