Hey des' tam, de chorni vody,
Siv na konya kozak molodyi.
Plache moloda divchyna,
Yide kozak z Ukrayiny.

Pryspiv:
Hey, hey, hey, sokoly,
Omynayte hory, lisy, doly.
Dzvin, dzvin, dzvin, dzvinochku,
Stepovyi zayvoronochku.

Zal, zal, za myloyu,
Za ridnoyu storonoyu.
Zal, zal, serce plache,
Bilshe yiyi ne pobachu.

Pryspiv

Plache, plache, divchynonka,
Lyuba moya lastivonka.
A ya u chuzomu krayu,
Serce spokoyu ne maye.

Pryspiv

Medu vy nam nalyvayte,
Yak zahynu – pochovayte.
Na dalekiy Ukrayini,
Kolo myloyi divchyny.
