Chorne more, krov Dniprom plyve

Chorne more, krov Dniprom plyve,
Tam sichovyk (3) na Moskvu ide.

Poperedu otaman ide,
Pid nym konyk (3) tak sumno ide.

– Oi ty, konyu, konyu voronyi,
Chom ty, konyu, (3) ty takyi sumnyi?

– Yak ze z meni veselomu but,
Yak shlyahamy (3) vorohy idut.

– Ne strashna nam v ljutim boyu smert,
Bii prynosyt (3) slavu, volju, chest.
