Vze sutinky upaly na levady,
Zatychly ponad svitom holosy.
Chto nashomu pobachennyu zavadyt'?
Chiba, shcho cholod pershoyi rosy.

Pestlyva niha vsi vahannya zbore,
Zashepotyt' schvylovano trava
I ya pochuyu iz naypershym bolem
Znayomyi shchem, okutanyi v slova.

Lyublyu, lyublyu – yak zavshe potayemno,
Rozhubleno povtoryuye divcha.
Abetku cyu u vichnosti vzayemyn,
Yaku nichto nikoly ne vyvchav.

A potim huby vidvede lyaklyvo,
Pokryye bilyi pryvyd lepecha.
Padinnya nashe omyvayut' zlyvy,
Ta hrim chomus' pid sercem zatycha.

Lyublyu, lyublyu – nemov zaha obpalyt'.
Lyublyu, lyublyu, mov sonce obpika.
Pid sercem kole hrudochka opalu,
Nahaduye lyubov bula yaka.
