Zasmin kvituye bilya chaty,
Chervonyi mak palachkotyt',
Ayakze sercyu rozkazaty –
Nam ne sudylosya lyubyt'?..
Veselky hrayut' z-poza chmary,
Ptachy spivayut', den dzvenyt'.
Ayakze nam teper bez pary –
Yak bez kochannya v sviti zyt'?..

Pryspiv:
A dni idut', a dni mynayut',
Mov v prirvach pomiz namy.
Ta koznu nich i kozen chas
Lovlyu tebe dumkamy.
V solodki sny zachodysh ty
I niznist' voskresaye,
A plyn zyttya v rusli riky
Tviy pohlyad zabyraye.

Vesna onovleno torknet'sya
I pochuttiv, i cvit sadiv,
I niznist' v rosach ozovet'sya,
De v kozniy krapli podych tviy.
De promeniye myt' kochannya,
De shchastya llyet'sya cherez kray,
Moya lyubove, z poza rannya
Svoye maybutnye zustrichay!
