Nad Dniprovoyu sahoyu

Nad Dniprovoyu sahoyu
Stoyit yavor mez lozoyu,
Mez lozoyu z yalynoyu,
Z chervonoyu kalynoyu.

Dnipro bereh ryye-ryye,
Yavorovi korin myye.
Stoyit staryi, pohylyvsya,
Mov kozak toi zazuryvsya.

Shcho bez doli, bez rodyny
Ta bez virnoyi druzyny,
Bez druzyny ta nadiyi
V samotyni posyviye!

Yavor kaze: – Pohyljusya
Ta v Dniprovi skupayusya. –
Kozak kaze: – Pohulyayu
Ta ljubuyu poshukayu.
Kozak kaze: – Pohulyayu
Ta ljubuyu poshukayu.

A kalyna z yalynoyu
Ta hnuchkoyu lozynoyu,
Mov divchatochka iz hayu
Vyhodzayuchy spivayut;

Povbyrani, zakvitchani
Ta z talanom zarucheni,
Dumky-hadonky ne mayut,
V’yutsya-hnutsya ta i spivayut.
Dumky-hadonky ne mayut,
V’yutsya-hnutsya ta i spivayut.
