Yak meni pryidet'sya vmerty,
Zertvuvaty dlya krayu,
Bud' laska, pochovayte
Mene v zelenomu hayu.

Lysh u hayu pochovayte,
Shchob dekoly vesnoyu
Choch ptashka zaspivala
Tuznu pisnyu nadi mnoyu.

Potim vysypte mohylu,
Chrest vysokyi vkopayte,
Na chrest prybyite doshku
I na niy slova podayte:

"Tut sichovyk spochyvaye,
Shcho z horyachoy lyubovy
V borot'bi za Ukrayinu
Ne znosyv tyazki okovy".

Ce skazav, na nebo hlyanuv,
Shepnuv "Boze" ledve chutno,
V Bozi ruky viddav dushu –
Kruhom stalo tycho, smutno.

A yoho mohylu nyni
Zveselyayut' ptashky spivom,
A ty, druze, yak tam budesh,
Zmov "Bohorodyce Divo".
