Ty ne taka...

Ne hovory, shcho ty, yak vsi –
Ty ne taka, ya znayu, insha,
Nehai odna na vsii Zemli,
Led-led teplisha, led svitlisha.

I coho dosyt – svit zminyvsya:
Nam staly blyzchi zori i nebo,
I nedarma meni nasnyvsya
Dalekyi shlyah do Andromedy.

I vze ne ya – nehai htos inshyi
Vsmihnetsya radisno na zleti! –
Teplishe led i led svitlishe
Sohodni stalo na planeti!
