A chto choche Handzyu znaty,
Proshu mene zapytaty!
Ya skazu pravdu shchyru,
Tilko proshu, dayte viru.

Taka ladna yako roza,
Yak topolya taka hoza,
A v rumyancy taka syla,
Shcho vsi c'vity pohasyla.

Tam to brovy, tam to ochy,
Ciluy, ciluy, shche sya choche;
Tam to Handzya, tam to zuch,
Tam to pys'o, yak pampuch.

Yak ya Handzi ne pobachu,
To ya tuzu, to ya plachu;
Yak Handzya na mene hlyane,
To vsya tuha perestane.

Oy nay sya bohach nechvalyt',
Shcho mene Handzi pozbavyt',
Nevoz'me yu zadna syla,
Bo my Handzya bihme myla.
