Chy znayesh ty, pane brate, yak zayac tryvaye

Chy znayesh ty, pane brate, yak zayac tryvaye?
Ya v nochy si napasaye, ya v den si hovaye.
Oi hovaye si, hovaye v velyke sklepitye,
Oi a strilec zabihaye, shche i vihonyt vitty.
Oi a strilec ide za nym, ochynash hovoryt,
Oi a zayac tak tikaye, nai Hospod boronyt.
Oi vistrilyav taistru prohu, a shritu mohylu,
Ubyv sobi dva zayaci, ta na cilu zymu.
