Pereoraly cilynu, perelamaly molodi rostky.
Ya chuyu trisk – ya pereymu kozac'kyi bil – to kozakiv kistky.

Rozvorotyly boroznu, perelyakaly zhrayu zuravlynu
Grunt siryi sochne na vitru: syra zemlya, ce chornozem iz tlinom.

Rillyam pustyly boronu, lyshyly sochnuty kushchi polynu,
Zaboronyly cilynu, de boronyly kozaky krayinu.
