– Vze pora, myla, vze obid, myla,
Syp borshchu, syp borshchu, moya chornobryva.

– Oy nemaye borshchu, miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Bo nemaye buryaka, holube syzenkyi.

– Navhorodi, myla, navhorodi, myla,
Tam buryak, tam buryak, moya chornobryva.

– Oy boyusya husaka, miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Ta boyusya z husaka, holube syzenkyi.

– Batizkom, myla, batizkom, myla,
Batizkom husaka, moya chornobryva.

– Oy nemaye batizka, miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Ne zberusya ya kupyt', holube syzenkyi.

– Zaroby, myla, zaroby, myla,
U kolhospi zaroby, moya chornobryva.

– Oy ne mozu ya robyty, miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Bo ya zvykla v cholodochku, holube syzenkyi.

– Ne stramys', myla, tak robyt', myla,
Roblyat' vsi uze zinky, moya chornobryva.

– Na roboti ya umru, miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Naroblyu tobi zalyu, holube syzenkyi.

– Ne zal ledarya, ta ne zal, myla,
Prac'ovytuyu lyublyu, moya chornobryva.

– A de z budesh choronyt', miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Yak budesh zalkuvat', holube syzenkyi?

– Pochovayu v derezi, v derezi, myla,
Ta y udaryu hopaka, moya chornobryva.

– To pidu, pidu robyt', miy mylyi, mylenkyi,
Strashno meni v derezi, holube syzenkyi.
