Ya pryishov syudy cherez natovp lyudey
Ya ishov kudys' bez dumok i idey
Shcho robytymu tam, de nemaye mene
Ale ya znayu tochno, znayu odne

Shchos' zminylos', shchos' puste u meni
Moze zhasly vsi moho sercya vohni
Dohorayut' u nomu ostanni mosty
Ale ya znayu tochno, shcho treba ity

Koly ya znaydu, te shcho mayu znayty
Koly zupynyus' u svoyeyi mety
Rozvernu kalendar i pushchu chas nazad
De mynule – maybutnye, de pered – tam zad

Pryspiv:
I zupynyus', lysh nastane uchora
I rozib’yu ya vikno, shchoby zori
Svoyim teplom roztopyly te more
Spohadiv toho, shcho bulo uchora
Te shcho ya bachyv u sni, toyi nochi
Te cherez shcho prokydatys' ne chochu
Te shcho naspradi ne vernesh nikoly
Te shcho lyshylos' u sviti "uchora"

Ya proydu po vistryu leza nerozplyushchuyuchy ochi
Shche odna vidverta teza zalyshylas' v lapach nochi
Den prochodyt' po zetonu, des' uranci, des' na schodach
Zupylyvshys' na chvylynu, des' na schodach perechodu
Rozchynyvshys' u prominni ya prochozu cherez vikna
Ya ne mozu zupynytys', ya boyus' staty pomitnym
Chtos' zasnuv na pidvikonni i prokynet'sya ne skoro
Chtos' chekav na mene dovho, chtos' chekav mene uchora
