Ne shkoda toho metelyka meni, shcho zhoriv u cikavosti vohni,
Ne shkoda toho kotyka meni, shcho chotiv mashynu zupynyt',
Tilky zal mynuleye moye, shcho ostannyu pisnyu spivaye...

Ne shkoda toho polityka meni, shcho lezyt' u zolotiy truni,
Ne shkoda toho chortyka meni, shcho strybaye vyshche holovy,
Tilky zal mynuleye moye, shcho ostannyu pisnyu spivaye...

Na heroya nemaye moyich sliz, shcho poperedu bat'ka v peklo liz,
Tilky zal mynuleye moye, shcho ostannyu pisnyu spivaye...

Qui que suum – koznomu svoye...
