Od Kyyeva y do Luben
Nasiyala konopel!

Pryspiv:
Dam lycha zakablukam,
Zakablukam lycha dam!
Dostanet'sya y peredam!

Z Chernihova y do Krolevcya
Ne pochula v sobi sercya!

Od Charkova y do Chorola
Cherevychky y pidporola!

A miy bat'ko chobotar
Cherevychky pidlatav!

Zapryazu ya kozu v viz
Da y poyidu do rohiz!

Zapryazu ya kurku v drozky
Ta y poyidu do Yavdoshky!

Zapryazu ya pivnya v sany
Ta poyidu do Oksany!

Zapryazu ya buhaya –
Kudy lyudy, tudy y ya!
