Oy vyhostryu tovarysha, zasunu v chalyavu
Ta y pidu shukaty pravdy i tiyeyi slavy,
Oy pidu ya ne luhamy i ne berehamy,
A pidu ya ne shlyachamy, a ponad shlyachamy.

Ya spytayu v zydovyna, bahatoho pana,
U shlyachtycha pohanoho v pohanim zupani,
U chencya, yak trapyt'sya, nechay ne hulyaye,
A Svyate Pys'mo chytaye, lyudey nauchaye.

Shchob brat brata ne rizaly ta ne obkradaly,
Ta v moskali vdovychenka, shchob ne oddavaly.
Shchob brat brata ne rizaly ta ne obkradaly,
Ta v moskali vdovychenka, shchob ne oddavaly.

Oy vyhostryu tovarysha, zasunu v chalyavu
Ta y pidu shukaty pravdy i tiyeyi slavy,
Oy, pidu ya ne luhamy i ne berehamy,
A pidu ya ne shlyachamy, a ponad shlyachamy.
