Buv sobi bilyi vovk,
Bilyi, mov bilyi shovk,
Bat'ko, mov prysmerk syvyi,
Chasto zitchav: "Miy synu,
Chom ty bilishyi snihu?
Chom v tebe ochi tychi?
Stan, yak i inshi, sirym,
Sirym poryadnym zvirom.

Vyye z tvoya vovchycya,
Sira, mov ta zemlycya,
Ditky tvoyi – vovchata,
Siri usi, yak maty.
Siri taki, yak treba,
Druzi smiyut'sya z tebe,
Kazut', na tebe lanec',
Mriynyk, vehetarianec'.
Kazut', o zach, na svyato
Yiv ty kotlety z m’yaty.

Buv sobi bilyi vovk,
Bilyi, mov bilyi shovk,
Chasto tikav vin z lisu,
I pid velykym mistom
Rvav bilosnizni liliyi
Biliy voroni Emiliyi.
Tycha i bezboronna
Spala des' tam vorona,
Bila, mov bila liliya,
Snylas' voroni idyliya:
Snyvsya yiy bilyi vovk,
Bilyi, mov bilyi shovk,
Rvav vin u luzi liliyi,
Liliyi dlya Emiliyi...
