Oy ziyshlysya dva huculy blyz'ko Yavorova
Ta stalasya mezy nymy velyka rozmova:

– Oy chodimo, tovaryshi, syad'mo pry horisi,
Poserbaymo huslyanochky, rozhovorymysi.

Poserbaly huslyanochky, zapalyly lyulky,
Zdalo by si, panibrate, zahraty "Huculky".

Ta "Huculky" ya ne vmiyu, ani "Podolivky",
Zdalo by si, tovaryshu, vypyty horivky.

Yak vytyahly flyashi z torby ta y zachaly pyty,
Zdalo by si, tovaryshu, kuleshu zvaryty.

Yak kuleshu povaryly, fayky zakuryly,
Yak vdaryly v ostri vruzy, kinmy pokotyly.

Chy tyamyte, tovaryshi, Fotyuka Semena,
Yaka v neho, oy, lyulechka, premudro zroblena?

Yaka v neho, oy, lyulechka, yaki v neho noshi,
Za cheresom tyutyun-skrutyun – ne boyalys'mo si.

Za cheresom tyutyun-skrutyun y chasom shumivka
Ta y navkolo pistoleta ta shche dubeltivka.
