Chaika nad morem

Chaika nad morem
Kryla vtomyla.
More – ne znaye,
More – shumyt.
Boze mii mylyi,
Dai meni syly
Vtomlenym sercem
Svit doljubyt!

Chmary nad morem
Nebo zakryly
Bereh nad morem
Znaye pro vse:
Tam, de my litom
V pari hodyly,
Viter osinnii
Lystya nese.

Tam, de prychaly,
Chaiky krychaly.
Tam, de temniye,
Sonce cvilo.
Sliv ne stachaye,
Spohadiv malo,
Shchob rozkazaty
Yak nam bulo

Svit ne zakryly
Vtomleni kryla –
Vichni molytvy
V serci zvuchat.
Boze mii mylyi,
Dai meni syly
Ne doljubyty,
To dospivat.

Ne doljubyty,
Ne doljubyty,
Ne doljubyty,
To dospivat.
