Oy zuravko, zuravko,
Choho krychysh shchoranku?!

Oy yak meni ne krychat',
Yak vysoko vylitat'.

Oy vysoko, vysoko
Klen-dereva u sadu.

Klen-dereva u sadu,
Na listochok ya vpadu.

Na listochok ya vpadu,
Na matinku pohlyanu.

Todi maty spom’yane,
Yak vecheryat' rozdaye.

Vsim lozechky rozdala,
A yodnaya lyshnyaya.

A yodnaya lyshnyaya –
To des' moya donka menshaya.
