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

Tam sobyralas' zydovshchyna
Da radily radu zydovs'kuyu.

Da radily radu zydovs'kuyu,
Kak Isusa Chrysta ulovity.

Ulovity, umertvity
Ta y na dryevizi rozopnuti.

Ulovily, umertvily
Ta y 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 chrystyyans'ka,
A potom uzyaly z chresta znyaly.

Potom uzyaly z chresta znyaly
I vo hrobi polozyly.

I vo hrobi polozyly,
I kamyenyam hrob navalily.

I kamyenyam hrob navalily,
I storozey postanovily.

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

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

Bozyya matir, Dyeva Mariya.
– Oy synu z moy, oy Boze z moy.

Oy, synu z moy, oy Boze z moy,
Ni navyeki ty umirayish.

Ni navyeki ty umirayish,
Za-za vsyech chrystiyan strast' pryimayish.

Pryinyav strasti, pryinyav rany
Ta za vsyech chrystiyan pravoslavnych.

Svyatoy vichir!
