Koshmarna nich

U strahu ochi velyki,
A nis shche bilshyi!

Hen, v kutku shchos merehtyt...
Shchos strashne ta chorne stoyit!
Vono maye chotyry dovhiyi lapy...
To z klyatyi stilec u kutku haty!

O, koshmarnaya nich, lize shchos do tebe volohate!
O, koshmarnaya nich, pazuramy cokaye po hati!

Hen, z vikna tin merehtyt...
Shchos strashne ta bile letyt!
Vono maye shyroki, dovhiyi kryla...
To klyata portyera tebe zbudyla!

Chorna nich po hati – hei-hei!
