Plachut' didus', plachut' babusya
Yichniy synochok v dorohu podavsya
Pivnyk cherlenyi lycho vishchuye
Skoro bida zakolyaduye

Prynesy, zymonko, synovi zironku
Yasnu-yasnesenku, lyali malesenkiy

Sonce smiyet'sya, misyac' rydaye
Nich zapeklasya v hlyci slozoyu
Znovu ide do nashoyi chaty
Syva bida kolyaduvaty

Plachut' didus', plachut' babusya
Yichniy synochok v dorohu podavsya
Serpykom sribnym dolyu malyuye
Skoro bida zakolyaduye

Vdaryt' u spynu buynomu vitru
Tyshu rozbudyat' sribni kopyta
Svichky zapalyuyte, hodi Vam spaty
Chas vze nastav kolyaduvaty
