Lvivski nochi

I.
Tvoya mene charuye svitankovist
V zinycyah hordyh leviv i levyc;
Ciluye kavy smak moyu svidomist,
Torkayut pohlyad knyhy iz polyc.

Pryspiv:
...A lvivski nochi mahiyeyu povni
Pry svitli lihtariv i talyh svich,
Do dna spyvayu liniyi yih plavni,
Shcho tak charuyut pohlyad moyih vich.

II.
I napuvayut sprahlyi rozum Slovom:
Poeziya do kavy, mov desert.
Tvoya budennist zavzdy ye svyatkova;
Hurman v literaturi i estet...

III.
Ya metushlyvyh dniv tvoyih kohanec,
Tvoho yestva odvichnyi pilihrym:
Prynad vuzenkyh vulyc vichnyi branec,
Poet-blukach miz obraziv i rym.
