Pishov did po hryby, baba po openky

Pishov did po hryby, baba po openky,
Baba svoyi posushyla, did poyiv syrenki.

Baba svoyi posushyla i borshchu zvaryla,
Ta shche i svoho didusenka do borshchu prosyla.

– Yakby-s, babko, dobra bula i dida ljubyla,
To by-s pishla didykovi rybochky vlovyla.

Pishla baba didovi rybochky vlovyty,
A did slidom pochvalav, vby babku vtopyty.

– Koby-m babku utopyv, to by-m ne zuryvsya,
Ta naishov by sobi divku i z nev ozenyvsya.

Babka yak ce vse uzdrila, tak sya rozserdyla –
Lap didusya za borodu: buh! – ta i utopyla!
