My ydemo v biy, zemlya drozyt'
Po zharyshchach ruyiny,
Za ridnyi kray, za narid sviy,
Za volyu Ukrayiny.

My ydemo v biy, zemlya drozyt',
Syniyut' hory, stepy.
A nas u biy blahoslovyt'
Mohuchyi duch Mazepy.

– O druzi, brattya, po tyurmach
Ne chas nam sumuvaty,
Ideya nasha presvyata
Ne dast' nam pohybaty.
