Emigrant Song

Pryspiv:
Bai-bai, myla, bai-bai,
Bai-bai, myla, proshchai.
Avtobusom do Londonu, litakom do Vashynhtonu,
Bai-bai, myla, mene zabuvai.

Nu, holyera, vso, nareshti yidu,
Za spynov lyshyvsya Rodiny kordon.
Pervym dyelom ya u Anhliyu do coci zayidu,
A potim na litakovy polechu v Voshynhton.

Pryspiv

Dyakuyu tobi, mamo,
Sho v polya vodyla krai sela,
Sho nochei ne dosypala, i v dorohu provodzala,
I rushnyk vyshyvanyi ty na shchastya dala.

Pryspiv

Dyakuyu, moyi sestry,
Bo Hospod my dav vas cilyh dvi.
Yak yedna sidlo shovaye, to vtora ’ho vidshukaye –
I ya yidu do divchyny, sho sya nravyt meni.
