V temnu chornu nich
viyaly vitry,
v nebi zir ne lich,
merechtyt' lysh try...

Try samotni zori,
nache slozy try,
nache perly v mori...
Viyaly vitry...

Chorna plachta nochi
navkruhy shatrom.
Chy to bachat' ochi? –
maty yde shlyachom...

Temryavy hodyna,
zori zovtym zernom.
Yde iz sercem Syna,
shcho probyte ternom...

V temnu chornu nich
viyaly vitry,
v nebi zir ne lich,
merechtyt' lysh try...
