Stryvai, parovoze!

Stryvai, parovoze, ne hryukaite kolesa,
Konduktore natysnit na halma.
Do materi, do tata v zahalnomu vahoni,
Ya yidu zaliznyceyu z tyurmy.

Don’t wait for me mamo, don’t wait for me tatu,
My train is leaving now for faraway.
Mene zasmoktala bahnyuka nebezpechna,
Propashcha moya dolya, zuhen vei.

Stryvai lokomotyve, ne hryukaite kolesa,
Shche ye chas v ochi doli zazyrnut,
Shche poky ne zapizno zrobyty nam zupynku,
Konduktore natysnit na halma.
