Babusyu, ridnenka

Babusyu, ridnenka,
Ty vse dobre znayesh:
Yake v mene hore,
Ty, pevno, vhadayesh? (ost 2 ryadky – 2)

Lysh ochi zapljushchu,
Oh, nene, z ty nene,
Des zrazu vizmetsya
Kozak bilya mene. (ost 2 ryadky – 2)

Dai zillya, babusyu,
Ta shche i opivnochi,
To moze kozak toi
Ne liztyme v ochi.

– Ni, serdenko donyu,
Coho ne zlichyty,
Taka tvoya dolya –
Nastav chas ljubyty. (ost 2 ryadky – 2)
