Oy poslala baba dida
Po studenu vodu,
Did chohos' tam zabaryvsya
Babi ne na zhodu.

Vin prychodyt' dodomonku,
Z vidrom pochytnuvsya,
Baba dida hup u plechi,
Toy perevernuvsya.

– Nashcho nam sya, babusenko,
Po durnomu byty,
Chodim krashche na potochok,
Tam sya budem myty.

Staly vony nad vodoyu
Ta y umyvalysya,
A did babu shur izzadu,
Baba vtopylasya.

Did pid vechir u subotu
Harno pidholyvsya,
Pishov sobi do kumasi:
Zadumav zenyt'sya.

U nedilyu did z kumoyu
Idut' po dorozi,
Vidchynyayut' v chatu dveri...
Baba na porozi.

– Oy ne dizdesh, staryi didu,
Z druhoyu zenyty,
Ya skupalas', ty pidstryhsya,
Stanem v zhodi zyty.
