U misyaci sentyabri vypala porosha,
Tym did babu poljubyv, shcho velmy horosha:
Bez huby, bez ochei, bez ruky pravoyi,
Prypadaye did do baby, mov do molodoyi.
Vzyav did babu za ruchenku, poviv u sadochok;
Ciluvav, myluvav:
– Ty z moya ljuba, myla, dorohyi cvitochok!
Povodyvshy po sadu, poviv u svitlycyu;
Povazaye did babusyu, mov tu molodycyu.
Posadyvshy na prypichku, stav pylno dyvytsya, –
Koly z taya vraza baba zovsim ne hodytsya!
Ciluvav, myluvav shche i po shchokah lyaskav;
A sam didok utomyvsya, poky babu vkoskav.
– Oi ne znayu, shcho robyty, de cyu vrazu babu dity,
Bo ne hochu ya iz neyu na cim sviti zyty.
– Bodai tobi, staryi didu, prava ruka vsohla,
Shcho ty mene popobyv, shcho ya chut ne zdohla!
Bodai tobi, staryi didu, prava ruka ’blizla,
Shcho ty mene popobyv, ledve na pich zlizla!
Bachyt baba, shcho bida, ta i davai prosytsya:
– Oi mii mylyi didusenko, pokynemo bytsya.
Pokynemo bytsya ta davai myrytsya,
My stari davno oboye, choho nam svarytsya?
Did od sercya odiishov ta i do baby pryishov:
– Pidy, babo, vmyisya, harnenko vberysya v usyakeye billya.
Chochu tebe povesty hoch raz na vesillya.
Pishla baba vmylas, harnenko ubralas v usyakeye billya:
– Oteper, didu, kudy hoch, tudy i provod!
Vzyav did babu za ruchenku, za horoshu vrodu,
Zaviv yiyi na mistok da i phnuv k chortu v vodu!
– Otutechky, stara babo, otut voda bihuchaya,
Otut, babo layuchaya, otut pokupaisya;
Tut voda bihucha – dobre pokupaisya,
Ta yak dida shanuvat, otut nauchaisya!
Poty baba bulkotala, pokil ne propala.
Odiishov did od mostochka da i davai hrestytsya:
– Ot propala moya baba, budu shche zenytsya!
Ide did dodomu, u skrypochku rize,
Ohlyanetsya, az to baba z ocheretu lize!
Izlyakavsya staryi did ta i pryishov dodomu:
– Oi pohano meni zyt u hati samomu.
Zabozyvsya didok: "Ne budu zenytsya;
Nehai zenyatsya taki,
Kotoriyi molodi,
A ya staryi didus
Iz baboyu pomyryus,
Na pich sobi zaberus,
Tam budu sobi lezat
Ta i babusyu povazat!"
