Nich yaka misyachna, zoryana, yasnaya,
Vydno, choch holky zbyray.
Vyidy, kochanaya, praceyu zmorena,
Choch na chvylynochku v hay!

Syadem ukupochci tut pid kalynoyu,
I nad panamy ya pan!
Hlyan, moya rybonko, – sribnoyu chvyleyu
Stelyt'sya v poli tuman.

Stav charivnyi, niby promenem vsypanyi,
Chy zahadavsya, chy spyt'?
Hen na strunkiy ta vysokiy osychyni
Lystya pestlyvo tremtyt'.

Ty ne lyakaysya, shcho nizenky bosiyi
Vmochysh v cholodnu rosu,
Ya z tebe, mylaya, az do chatynonky
Sam na rukach odnesu.

Ty ne lyakaysya, shcho zmerznesh, lebedonko,
Teplo – ni vitru, ni chmar,
Ya pryhornu tebe do svoho serdenka,
A vono palke, mov zar.
