Yak sy zaspivayu nichenkoyu v hayu

Yak sy zaspivayu nichenkoyu v hayu,
Yak myla pochuye, to sya obraduye.

Vchera nedilenka, nyni ponedilok,
Siyaly pshenychku, vrodyvsya barvinok.

– Idy, mii mylenkyi, barvinok kosyty,
Bo ne bude z choho vinochok nosyty.

Oi pishov mylenkyi barvinochok rvaty,
Tam ioho zastala divchynonky maty.

– Ne zuritsya, maty, barvinok hreshchatyi,
Ya hlopec molodyi ishche ne zonatyi.

Narvu barvinochku, strichechku distanu,
Z vashoyu dochkoyu na rushnychok stanu.
