Poyihav by v lis po drova

Poyihav by v lis po drova,–
V mene zinka chornobrova.

Pryspiv:
Treba doma sydit,
Treba zinku hlyadit,
Shchob i htos ne pryishov,
Shchob i shchos ne prynis:
Abo sala kusok,
Abo myla brusok,
Abo teyi neshchasnoyi
Chechevyci mishok.

Poyihav by ya voliv pasty,–
Chochut hlopci zinku vkrasty.

Poyihav by ya do mlyna,–
V mene zinka moloda.

Pishov by ya pohulyaty,–
Pryide zinka zahanyaty.
