Ameryckyi krai

Poletiv by m na krai svita, yak viter, shto v poli litat,
Lem zal my tya, moya hyzo lem zal my tya, zal,
A inakshe by m poyihav (2) v Ameryckyi krai.

Hei, dole, dole, de s sya dole dila?
Cy tya voda vzyala, cy tya ryba z’yila?
Lem zal my tya, zal...
Kit tya voda vzyala, budu tya hlyadaty, kit tya ryba z’yila, nyhda tya ne znaty...

Lem zal my tya, moya strano, de zyyut mamichka z nyankom,
Lem zal my vas, moyi dity lem zal my vas zal,
A inakshe by m poyihav (2) v Ameryckyi krai.
