Yak chasto ya bachu vvi sni ukradeni hory,
Kotri sterezut' vid mene prykordonni dozory,
Ya tam nikoly ne buv, y chtozna, chy potraplyu koly,
Choch shche pivstolittya tomu moyi tam bat'ky zyly.

Pryspiv 1:
Tam, na Lemkivshchyni, nashi miscya svyati,
Tam, na Lemkivshchyni, shche stoyat' nashi chaty.
Yak ty, Lemkivshchyno, zyvesh bez nas v samoti?
Chy ne zohnyly, ne zorzavily chresty
Na mohylach didiv?

I ya nochamy ne splyu, mov snovyda yakyi.
Ya znayu – miy shlyach tudy ne bude lehkyi.
Bo tam, de rivnyayut' kordony – tam shchastya nema,
U nas rizni zakony, ta yednakova tyurma.

Pryspiv 2:
Ale tam, na Lemkivshchyni, nashi miscya svyati.
Ale tam, na Lemkivshchyni, shche stoyat' nashi chaty.
Yak ty, Lemkivshchyno, zyvesh bez nas v samoti?
Chy ne zohnyly, ne zorzavily chresty
Na mohylach didiv?

My po svitu rozkydani, nenache zydy.
Chto dav vam pravo vershyt' nashu dolyu, nashi "starshi braty"?
Spovyti hory tumanom, chto z nam yich verne?
Ya znayu, des' tam, ponad Syanom ye ti, shcho chekayut' mene...

Pryspiv 3:
Des' tam, na Lemkivshchyni, de stoyat' nashi chaty.
Des' tam, na Lemkivshchyni, de nashi miscya svyati.
Yak ty, Lemkivshchyno, zyvesh bez nas v samoti?
Chy ne zohnyly, ne zorzavily chresty
Na mohylach didiv?
