Mav ya raz divchynonku chepurnenku,
Lyubyv ya divchynochku chepurnenku.

Pryspiv:
Hey, hey, (hey) u-cha-cha,
Divchyno-rybchyno moloda.

Posylav ya starostiv u nedilyu.
Dumav: pohulyayemo na vesillyu.

Maly povernutysya z rushnykamy,
A to povernulysya z harbuzamy.

Vs'omu suprotyvyvsya bat'ko ridnyi,
Bo vona bohataya, a ya bidnyi.

Dumav ya vtopytysya z toyi zlosty,
Ta voda cholodnaya lomyt kosty.

Shchoby vryatuvaty vid spokusy,
Pishov ya pysatysya v usususy.

Vze pro halychanochku ne dumayu,
Bo na Dniprovshchyni desyat' mayu.
