Oy sumnaya subotonka, sumnyi den,
Byla maty svoyu dochku cilyi den.
Oy shcho z ty mnya, za shcho b’yesh?
Nashcho mene za nelyuba viddayesh?
Ya nelyuba ne lyubyla y ne lyublyu,
Za nelyubom hore zyty ne pidu.
U nedilyu ranesenko, chut' na svit,
Mandruvala chornyavaya v bilyi svit.
Mandruy, mandruy, divchynonko,
Po polyu, osidlayu voron-konya, dohonyu.
Yak osidlav voron-konya ta y dohnav,
Za kosonku do hryvonky pryv’yazav.
Bizy, bizy, voron-konyu, po polyu,
Vyvolochy chornym ternom myluyu.
Oy vyhostry, moya myla, hostro niz,
Ta y vybery chorne ternya z svoyich nih.
