Kozak od’yizdzaye,
Divchynonka plache:
"Kudy yidesh, kozache?
Kozache-sokole,
Viz'my mene iz soboyu
Na Vkrayinu daleku!"

"Divchynonko myla,
Shcho z budesh robyty
Na Vkrayini dalekiy?"
"Budu chustky praty,
Zelenoho zyta zaty
Na Vkrayini dalekiy!"

"Divchynonko myla,
Shcho z budesh ty yisty
Na Vkrayini dalekiy?"
"Suchari z vodoyu,
Aby, serce, iz toboyu
Na Vkrayini dalekiy!"

"Divchynonko myla,
De z budesh ty spaty
Na Vkrayini dalekiy?"
"V stepu pid verboyu,
Aby, serce, z toboyu
Na Vkrayini dalekiy!"
