Yichav strilec' na voynonku,
Proshchav svoyu divchynonku:
Proshchay ze, lyubko, proshchay, holubko,
Ya ydu v chuzuyu storononku.

Poday, divchyno, chustynu,
Bo yak u boyu zahynu,
Nakryyut' ochi temnoyi nochi,
Lekshe u hrobi spochynu.

Lychiyi lyudy na sylu
Vzyaly neshchasnuyu mylu,
A sered polya hnet'sya topolya
Ta na strilec'ku mohylu.
