Pisochok zovtenkyi, sadok zelenenkyi.
Chodyv do divchyny kozak molodenkyi.

Chodyv vin do neyi ta y dumav uzyaty.
Pryishov z starostamy – ne udaye maty.

– Pusty z mene, maty, kalynu lomaty,
Bo pryidut' divchata mene ubyraty.

Pryishly z ti divchata, moyeyi nemaye,
Moyeyi holubky maty ne puskaye.

– Pusty z mene, maty, chot' tilo schovaty.
Ne budu ya plakat', nychoho kazaty.

Pryishla ta divchyna ta y stala v porozi.
Zabylosya serce, zaplakaly ochi.

– Oci z bili ruchky mene obnimaly,
Oci ali hubky mene ciluvaly.
