Lirychna

Kohannya ce zla shtuka i yakby my ne kohaly,
To navit i by ne znaly,
Yak tyazko perezyvaty i vnochi ne dospaty.

Vohon vze zhoriv, a zar shche lyshyvsya,
Iz popelu vin spokiino svityvsya,
Tut viter pryishov
I zar vin znaishov.

Ya ne mozu vam skazaty,
Yak ce tyazko vidchuvaty,
Yak serdenko rozbyvaye,
I zyttya na krai tikaye
Choch dorohy i ne znaye.

Kohannya ce ta muka, yaku my zavzdy chekayem,
Ale chasom vidkydayem,
Bo ne zdatni shche pryinyaty
Te teplo, shcho moze nam htos daty.

Ya bachu spalah – ce dumky tvoyi,
Vony sperechayutsya z dumkoyu v meni,
I ya dochekayus tiyeyi hvylyny,
Koly budemo razom...
