Dovho zyve staryi Lukashenko,
Uze nesyla trymaty shablyu...
A ye shche syla trymaty svichku,
Ta y pishov sobi Bohu sluzyty...
Ta y pishov sobi Bohu sluzyty
U monastyr nad Dniprom, nad velykym,
De chencyuvaly stari zaporozci –
Zamolyuvaly hrichy sichoviyi...

Pryspiv:
Oy, Dnipro shyrokyi,
Oy, Dnipro hlybokyi,
Oy, Dnipro, ponesy i spasy!

Dovho molyvsya staryi Lukashenko,
Ta postavyly poruch fortecyu,
I ne kozaky, a moskovs'kiyi lyudy,
Shchob pryruchyty Dnipro volnolyubyi...
I ne vytrymaly stari zaporozci:
I skydaly odyah chernechyi,
Bo molytva vze ne pomahaye
Serce Ukrayiny – Dnipro vryatuvaty...

Pryspiv

I prychodylo viys'ko moskovs'ke,
I katuvaly starych zaporozciv,
U Dnipro hlyboke yich povkydaly
I Dniprom shyrokym do morya puskaly...
