Oi ty kazav, mii mylenkyi, shcho ni budesh braty

Oi ty kazav, mii mylenkyi, shcho ni budesh braty,
A ty pishov, mii mylenkyi, ynshoyi shukaty.
Chot ty sobi, ljubcyu, naidesh z syvymy volamy,
Taky sobi hoi ne naidesh z chornymy brovamy.
Choho z ty si, moya myla, take rozbyrayesh?
Choho z ty si v svoyim rodu take velychayesh?
Yak meni si, mii mylenkyi, ta i ne velychaty,
Ya na vrodu duze faina, mozu si pryznaty.
Oi shcho z tobi, ljubcyu, z vrody, shcho-s na vrodu krasna?
Koby-s, ljubcyu, hroshi mala, to by-s bula shchasna.
A shcho z tobi, ljubcyu, z toho, shcho ye hroshyi mnoho?
Koly bo si oi ne mayesh hlyanuty na koho.
