Shcho za radist' na s'viti sya stala,
Yakovaya pered tym ne byvala:
Pryspiv:
S'vyat Boh narodyvsya
V sey den, i povyvsya
Vo yaslach.
Triye cary od vostok prybyly,
Rozdennomu dary predlozyly.
Ty Davyde byi v husly veselo,
Shcho sya toye ispolnylo slovo.
Cheruvymy na prestoli zryashche,
Serafymy okrest predstoyashche.
Irod z toho zasmutyvsya,
Shcho Boh z Divy na s'vit narodyvsya.
Kazav dity maliyi stynaty,
Rozdennoho v vertepi shukaty.
Shcho, Irod bezumnyi, dilayesh?
Shcho za Chrystom v vertepi shukayesh?
Nechay tvoye bezumstvo propadaye,
Rozdennoho imya nay siyaye.
Daz nam v myri zytye skonchaty,
Rozdennoho vsehda vychvalyaty.
