Kateryna

To bulo nezvychne lito, na medah i dykim cviti,
Na travi, rosoyu vmytii, nastoyalosya.
Sered zasharilyh vyshen do mene divchyna vyishla,
U vinku z p’yankoyi m’yaty sudzena moya.

Pryspiv:
Kateryno, chuyesh, klychu, Kateryno,
Vyidy znovu na dorohu, Kateryno,
V zelen-sadi ya chekayu, divchyno moya.
Kateryno, bilyi spohad, Kateryno,
Shchyryi usmih, yasnyi pohlyad, Kateryno,
U prominni yasnoplynnim bachu ya tebe,
U prominni yasnoplynnim, u prominni yasnoplynnim,
Bachu ya tebe.

U vinku z p’yankoyi m’yaty i z prominnya zolotoho,
Poruch mene, yak lebidka, Kateryna ishla.
Ale lito promynulo, zakinchylosya znyvamy,
ioho vidhomin lyshyvsya tilky v moyih snah.
