Koby-smo si, pane brate, buly ne zenyly,
Buly by si nashi mamy namy ne zuryly.
Ne zurit si, nashi mamy, za namy, za namy,
Bo my pidem do cisarya, budemo panamy.
Oy mayu ya, mamuncunyu, takym panom buty,
Voliyu ya, mamuncunyu, kosoyu tyahnuty.
Ya kosoyu raz potyahnu, vstanu, vidpochynu,
A v cisarya tizka sluzba, malo ne zahynu.
