A u chetver, u Bozyi den

A u chetver, u Bozyi den,
Tam i sobyralas zydovshchyna.

Tam sobyralas zydovshchyna
Da radily radu zydovskuyu.

Da radily radu zydovskuyu,
Kak Isusa Chrysta ulovity.

Ulovity, umertvity
Ta i na dryevizi rozopnuti.

Ulovily, umertvily
Ta i na dryevizi rozopnuly.

I na dryevizi rozopnuly,
Ruchky, nozky hvozdyam prybivaly.

Ruchky, nozky hvozdyam prybivaly,
Ternovyi vinok na holovku klaly.

Ternovyi vinok na holovku klaly,
Pod krov chashu podstanovlyaly.

Shtoby zbihala krov hrystyyanska,
A potom uzyaly z hresta znyaly.

Potom uzyaly z hresta znyaly
I vo hrobi polozyly.

I vo hrobi polozyly,
I kamyenyam hrob navalily.

I kamyenyam hrob navalily,
I storozei postanovily.

A storoza kryepko usnuly,
Kryepko usnuly da i ne chuly.

Kak pryishla k nimu Bozyya matir,
Bozyya matir, Dyeva Mariya.

Bozyya matir, Dyeva Mariya.
– Oi synu z moi, oi Boze z moi.

Oi, synu z moi, oi Boze z moi,
Ni navyeki ty umirayish.

Ni navyeki ty umirayish,
Za-za vsyeh hrystiyan strast pryimayish.

Pryinyav strasti, pryinyav rany
Ta za vsyeh hrystiyan pravoslavnyh.

Svyatoi vichir!
